The Sound of Music

Sound of Music is sure to be a Holiday Favorite!

by

Sound of Music always brings back such fond memories, not only from young childhood cuddled up on the couch with my mom (who, like me, still leaves it on every time she comes across it on television), but from my senior year of high school. My dearest friend in the world (to this day) played Maria, and we had the best time! I was eager to see last night’s rehearsal at Town Hall, because I hadn’t see the show staged since then, and I was thrilled at how well it has all come together. You can’t help but sing along to the songs, and the shows most prominent message still resonates in practically any situation.

So, I will leave you with some great footage shot last night by our new film intern, Alec Williams! Enjoy (and get your tickets)!
