On Sunday afternoon, we went to Centennial Hall on the UA campus to watch The King and I. It was the 2015 Tony Award winner for Best Musical Revival. The Rodgers &
Hammerstein classic is set in 1860’s Bangkok.
It tells the story of the relationship
that develops between the King of Siam and the British schoolteacher he
brought in to teach his many wives and children. We enjoyed every moment!
