Meet Me In St. Louis-Opening Night!
The St. Louis Exposition returns to Forest Park, and the sound of the trolley will ring once more! The lights will be shining again as the Smith sisters scheme and connive to get their men – or at least their "boys next door" – to meet them at the fair. So meet us at The Muny for one of the most exciting evenings St. Louis has seen in more than a hundred years!
