The final collaboration between Rodgers & Hammerstein was destined to become the world's most beloved musical. When a postulant proves too high-spirited for the religious life, she’s dispatched to serve as governess for the children of a widowed naval Captain. Her growing rapport with the youngsters, coupled with her generosity of spirit, gradually captures the heart of the stern Captain, but when Austria is invaded by the Nazis, they demand the Captain's immediate service in their navy, and the family must plan their escape. This timeless classic features such musical favorites as “My Favorite Things,” “Do, Re, Mi,” “Edelweiss,” “Climb Ev'ry Mountain,” “Sixteen Going on Seventeen,” and, of course “The Sound of Music.” Be sure not to miss this wonderful heartwarming story! Suggested for ages 8+, though younger children are welcome to attend. Performance will last approximately two hours and 15 minutes, (including one 15 minute intermission).
