The final collaboration between Rodgers & Hammerstein was destined to become the world's most beloved musical. Featuring a trove of cherished songs, including "Climb Ev'ry Mountain," "My Favorite Things," "Do Re Mi," "Sixteen Going on Seventeen" and the title number, The Sound of Music won the hearts of audiences worldwide, earning five Tony Awards and five Oscars.

But as the forces of Nazism take hold of Austria, Maria and the entire von Trapp family must make a moral decision.

Heading the cast as Maria, the role immortalized on film by Julie Andrews, is Sally Bethmann. She will be joined onstage by Erik Snyder (Captain Georg von Trapp), Libby Kane (Mother Abbess), Bill Weir (Uncle Max), with Audra Casebier making her Music Mountain Theatre debut at Baroness Elsa Schraeder.

Roles of the Von Trapp children will be shared by Finn O'Brien and Tegan Costello), Jamie Bultemeier and Stevie Bowden, Griffin Grushow and Asher Mendelssohn, Giana Ruth Griffiths and Lucy Spiegel, Olivia Greeley and Lillian Mueller, Lorena Bueno-Looney and Julia Mueller, with Kate Jones playing Liesl at all performances opposite Zachary McDevitt as Rolf.
