The Sound of Music
CHRISTIAN YOUTH THEATER - McHenry County
Based on a true story of the Von Trapp Family who fled from Nazi-occupied Austria before the outbreak of World War Two, The Sound of Music is an exciting story of family, freedom, triumph and romance! The play is set in Austria in 1938. Maria Rainer, a free-spirited nun-in-training who has much trouble adjusting to convent life. Maria is then sent to be a temporary governess to seven children of widower Captain Von Trapp who treats his children like a group of regimented sailors. However, Maria's love of music, and of life, soon endears her to the children and, after much work, even the strictest of Captians begins to deeply admire her. As their love grows, so does the hatred in the world around them and the family must find a way to flee over the Alps of Switzerland to escape the Nazi invasion! From the open-hearted innocence of the title tune to the uplift of "Climb Every Mountain" to the folk simplicity of "Edelweiss" to the charm of "Do-Re-Mi" and "My Favourite Things," The Sound of Music continues to delight families with its memorable story and music!
