Red Mountain Theatre Co Presents THE SOUND OF MUSIC 7/15-8/1

Red Mountain Theatre Company presents one of the most beloved musicals of all time - Rodgers and Hammerstein's The Sound of Music - July 15-August 1, 2010, at the Virginia Samford Theatre (1116 26th Street South).

The Sound of Music tells the story of sweet young Maria, who's sent off to be the governess of Captain von Trapp's seven troublesome children. Through their mutual love of music, the von Trapp family comes to admire Maria. But when the Nazis invade Austria, the whole family is forced to flee their homeland in hopes of finding freedom. With an unforgettable score that includes musical favorites like "My Favorite Things," "Do-Re-Mi," "Climb Ev'ry Mountain" and "The Lonely Goatherd," The Sound of Music is the perfect family treat!

The Sound of Music features Broadway veteran George Dvorsky as "Captain von Trapp" and Birmingham's Kristen Bowden Sharp as "Maria." View full cast list
