It was apparent to everyone, except maybe Willson himself, that he was on his way to something big.Lighthearted and inspiring, it is no surprise Willsons tales caught the attention of prominent Broadway producers. In 1957, just nine years after the publication of this book, The Music Man became a Broadway sensation, winning five Tony Awards, including Best Musical. Meredith Willsons musical comedy is to this day arguably the most produced and beloved musical in American culture.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51974576963872,"sku":"NEW0816667691","price":17.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/and-there-i-stood-with-my-piccolo-0816667691","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
