The Tony Award-winning musical The Sound of Music will be performed at Theatre By The Sea this summer.
The Sound of Music tells the story of a young postulant who is sent to serve as governess for the seven children of a widowed naval captain. Her growing relationship with the children, as well as her generosity of spirit, gradually captures the heart of the stern captain. The production features beloved songs such as “Do-Re-Mi,” “My Favorite Things,” “Edelweiss,” and the iconic title track “The Sound of Music.”
Kim Sava, an original Broadway company member of Beetlejuice, is leading the cast. She makes her Theatre By The Sea debut as Maria Rainer. The cast also features John Gardiner (Jersey Boys, A Bronx Tale), Kyli Rae (Jersey Boys), Amanda Hunter-Finch (Sunset Boulevard, The Sound of Music, After Midnight!, Flashdance, Anna Nicole, and Porgy and Bess), and Thom Warren.
