RTOP to present 'The King & I'

Regional Theatre of the Palouse will present "The King and I," opening Aug. 16. Rodgers and Hammerstein’s romanticized musical is based on the real-life events of Anna Leonowens, a British governess hired as an English teacher by the King of Siam in the early 1860’s.

In order to authentically showcase the intricate beauty of historical Siamese culture, the show features traditional masks, head dresses and fabrics shipped directly from Thailand.

Performances will be at the RTOP Theatre, 122 N. Grand Ave., Pullman. Admission is $20. Tickets are available by calling...
