The Sound of Music

“A musical comes home” – to its original setting in Salzburg.

Maria loves the mountains, and she loves to sing and dance. She wants to become a nun but instead is sent to serve as a governess to the children of widowed Captain von Trapp. The budding romance of Maria and the Captain is put to the test as Austria’s “Anschluss” into Nazi Germany confronts the family with an impossible choice …

Following the 60-year anniversary of the world-famous movie, the Salzburg State Theatre once again adds the successful production to its season programme. A touching family saga about loyalty, courage in difficult times and the power of music.

“60 years later, the hills are still alive: Salzburg is enthusiastically hosting ‘The Sound of Music’ with an impressive staging of the musical. With the first notes of ‘Do-Re-Mi’, the play has the audience smiling.” – New York Times
