BWW Review: THE SOUND OF MUSIC on Tour
by Kathy Strain - March 09, 2019
THE SOUND OF MUSIC is among one of the world's greatest musicals ever. The musical score by Rogers and Hammerstein is amazing and has proven to be one of the greatest musicals. Most would picture Julie Andrews as Maria and Christopher Plummer as Captain Georg von Trapp. But, as the show opened up at the Majestic Theatre in San Antonio, many will agree that the current tour of THE SOUND OF MUSIC is on the same caliber as the original movie. The talent on the stage was nothing less than breath-taking including every member in the ensemble. The talent was non-stop as the show moved seamlessly between scenes.

Larson called it his breakthrough work, "Hair for the 90's" wishing to "bring musical theater to the MTV generation" (New York Times, 1997).
