Music by Richard Rodgers | Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein
Book by Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse
Based on The Story of the Trapp Family Singers by Maria Augusta Trapp

Set in 1930s Austria, The Sound of Music follows Maria, a spirited young nun-in-training who becomes governess to the seven lively children of widowed naval officer Captain Georg von Trapp. As Maria brings music and joy back into their lives, she unexpectedly falls in love with both the children and the Captain—who is engaged to the elegant Baroness Elsa Schröder. With the threat of Nazi occupation looming, the von Trapps must make a courageous decision: submit to the new regime or risk everything for freedom.

Featuring iconic songs like "My Favorite Things," "Do-Re-Mi," "Edelweiss," and "Climb Every Mountain," this timeless musical celebrates love, courage, and the power of music to bring people together.
