Celebrating 12 years of service to the youth of the greater Skagit Valley region.

The King and I , a Rodgers and Hammerstein musical has been loved by audiences for decades and thoroughly pleased the audience throughout the 2003 holiday season.

The story is set in Bangkok in the early 1860s and tells the story of Anna, an adventurous widowed
English teacher hired to serve as governess and tutor to Siamese King Mongkut's many children. The collision of East and West affords it's winning mixture of drama and humor. The warm friendship that grows between the king and the patrician teacher provides a poignant, unfulfilled romance between the two protagonists, and Anna's influence on the king helps to democratize the country.
