 by Oscar Hammerstein II\nBased on Anna and the King&nbsp\;by Margaret La
 ndon\nBased in part on the true story of Anna&nbsp\;Leonowens\, The King
  and I is a tale of&nbsp\;what happens when East meets West and&nbsp\;cu
 ltures collide. Anna\, a widow from Wales&nbsp\;who takes on the role of
  schoolteacher to&nbsp\;the King of Siam&rsquo\;s children and wives\, i
 s&nbsp\;forced to re-think stereotypes at the same&nbsp\;time that King 
 Mongkut slowly learns to&nbsp\;have respect for Anna and her opinions. I
 n&nbsp\;1862 Siam AGAINST a backdrop of starcrossed&nbsp\;lovers Tuptim 
 and Lun Tha\, people&nbsp\;resistant to change\, and a world trying&nbsp
 \;to embrace Western culture\, how much&nbsp\;admiration can there be be
 tween Anna&nbsp\;and King Mongkut without tearing apart a&nbsp\;country?
  With memorable songs such as&nbsp\;&ldquo\;Shall We Dance?&rdquo\; and 
 &ldquo\;Getting to Know&nbsp\;You&rdquo\;\, The King and I is bound to f
 ill you with&nbsp\;hope and understanding.\nJuly 26&ndash\;August 5 -&nb
