We received complimentary tickets for the purpose of review, as well as additional tickets for a reader giveaway.
The Sound of Music is one of the first movies I remember seeing in a movie theater. It was a revival, of course, but I remember being enchanted by all of those kids and the constant singing. The story is both thrilling and inspiring, sad and uplifting. Now my daughter is also captivated by the story of all those kids and their amazing singing nanny-turned-stepmother. Despite having seen the movie more times than I can count, I’ve never seen the musical on stage. Until now, of course. It’s coming to the Wang Theatre in Boston and I can’t wait to go and enjoy it in person. If you love The Sound of Music as much as I do, you’ll want to read on because I’ve got some tickets to give away!
Given my feelings about this story and the musical as a whole, I particularly resonated with these words from Ted Chapin, President of Rodgers & Hammerstein, “I waited for a moment when we could rediscover THE SOUND OF MUSIC as it was originally created. Because of the enormous success of the film, few were aware that it started life as a hit Broadway show—and a very big hit at that! The artists behind this production embraced what the authors wrote, looked at it all through modern eyes and, in so doing, found depth and resonance that has been recognized by critics and audiences across the country. It’s like visiting an old friend but finding yourself surprised as well. It’s also a reminder of why this show is such an evergreen.”
