The Broadway National Tour of the beloved Rodgers & Hammerstein musical, THE SOUND OF MUSIC has arrived in Toronto this holiday season and it is the perfect excursion for the entire family.

Tonight, I traveled back to my childhood as 'The Sound Of Music' stopped over at The Belk Theatre, in Charlotte, NC as it performs on stages throughout the U.S. on a national tour My seat mates and I sung every song to include: 'My Favorite Things', 'Do-Re-Mi', and 'Sixteen Going On Seventeen'. All timeless classic that are an integral part of our American Culture.

Watch a video from the new North American tour of The Sound of Music, led by Cayleigh Capaldi as Maria Rainer, Kevin Earley as Captain Georg von Trapp, Tony Award nominee Christiane Noll as the Mother Abbess.

Based on Maria von Trapp’s 1949 memoir titled The Story of the Trapp Family Singers. The Sound of Music tells the true story of Maria Rainer, a young, free-spirited, but troublemaking postulant at a convent in Salzburg, Austria. Knowing how irresponsible she is, the Mother Abbess sends her to Salzburg to serve as the governess to the seven children of the widowed Captain Georg von Trapp.

The North American tour of The Sound of Music is now underway! The tour launched at the Stanley Theatre in Utica, NY from September 5–6 before traveling to cities across North America for multiple seasons. Read the reviews here!

The Sound of Music is a veritable old warhorse of the Broadway musical canon, and it has stood the test of the vicissitudes of time. No amount of changing source material, cynicism, saccharine, or negativity can puncture the universal themes of familial love, romantic love, devotion spirituality, perseverance, forgiveness, and devotion that permeate this beloved musical. These universal themes have resonated with audiences from time immemorial---and are especially pertinent in today’s polarized times.
