The Candlelight Dinner Playhouse presents "The Sound Of Music" from tonight, June 27 to September 1 2013. Considered one of the masterpieces of modern musical theatre, Sound of Music marked the culmination of the epic Rodgers and Hammerstein collaboration. Featuring such theatrical standards as "The Sound Of Music", "How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria", "16 Going On 17", "Edelweiss" and "Climb Every Mountain"; "The Sound Of Music"remains one of the most beloved musicals of all time.
Too high-spirited for the religious life, Maria is dispatched to serve as governess for the seven children of widowed naval Captain von Trapp. She gradually captures the heart of the stern Captain, however upon returning from their honeymoon they discover that Austria has been invaded by the Nazis. The family narrowly escapes to Switzerland providing one of the most inspirational finales ever presented in musical theatre.
"The Sound Of Music" is well-known for its gorgeous score and iconic characters," says Sound of Music director Brian Burron. "But this show remains as powerful today as it was when it was written over 50 years ago because it is also about things that really matter to us all - finding full and meaningful lives, love and family, and having the courage to do what is right, even in the face of potentially devastating circumstances."
