The
Woodlands Repertory Theatre Presents The
Sound of Music at
at
The Nancy Bock Center for Performing Arts
The
Woodlands, Texas… The Woodlands Repertory Theatre,
part of the Class Act Productions family, will proudly present The Sound of Music on November 20, 22 & 23. When a postulant proves too high-spirited for the religious life,
she is dispatched to serve as governess for the seven 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, and
they marry. Upon returning from their honeymoon they discover that Austria has
been invaded by the Nazis who demand the Captain's immediate service in their
navy. The family's narrow escape over the mountains to Switzerland on the eve of
World War II provides one of the most thrilling and inspirational finales ever
presented in the theatre. This final collaboration between Rodgers &
Hammerstein was destined to become the world's most beloved musical and the
motion picture version remains the most beloved movie musical of all time.
The show has been cast,
rehearsals are underway, and all the many facets of creating a show of this
scale are in full swing. In keeping
with Class Act Production’s reputation of offering Broadway caliber
productions, coupled with the many visual elements required to simulate the
splendor of Austria, several set back drops and set pieces have been secured
from the Pittsburgh Civic Light Opera.
Performances of The
Sound of Music will be held November 20, 22 & 23 at 8:00 PM and November
23 at 2:30 PM at the Nancy Bock Center for Performing Arts –, 3800 S. Panther
Creek Drive, The Woodlands, TX 77381.
