When smooth-talking con man Harold Hill arrives in a small, tight-knit town in Iowa, he expects to fool its residents with his elaborate scheme…

Despite his complete lack of musical literacy, he will convince everyone that he is a brilliant bandleader and recruit all the boys in town to form a band, pocketing the cash for instruments and uniforms. The problem? Some of the town members don’t quite buy Harold’s story. Harold struggles to keep his scheme afloat as he finds himself becoming attached to the townspeople, who have all experienced positive change since meeting Harold. Complicating matters even more, he is also falling head-over-heels for the beautiful Marian. Harold now must decide whether to give in to his feelings or continue his grifting as he’s always done best.
