A family favorite, Rodgers & Hammerstein's The King & I is set in Bangkok in the early 1860s and tells the story of Anna, an adventurous Englishwoman hired to serve as governess and tutor to King Mongkut's many children. Although Anna has many quarrels with this Ruler, the two eventually fall in love, and her influence on the king helps to democratize the country.
