11th-14th April 2012 – The Sound of Music
OMTC are proud to be one of the first Amateur companies with a licence to perform Rogers and Hammerstein’s “The Sound of Music”, with Music and Lyrics by Richard Rogers and Oscar Hammerstein, and a book by Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse. It is based on the memoir of Maria von Trapp, The Story of the Trapp Family Singers.
This popular show formed the basis of the ever popular film starring Julie Andrews, and has recently finished a 2 year run on the West End and a successful national tour.
The Sound of Music has many familiar and beautiful songs, including “I have Confidence”, “Do, Ray Mi”, “The Lonely Goatherd” and “Edelweiss”. Combine this with the well-written, well-known story and this show promises to be a hit.
Casting has already taken place for this show, and we have a great cast:
- Maria Rainer: Kate MacDonald
- Captain von Trapp: Mark Lord
- The Von Trapp children:
- Liesl von Trapp: Rachel Smith
- Friedrich von Trapp: Henry Liston
- Louisa von Trapp:

- Marta von Trapp:

I have to say, while looking through hundreds of blogs daily, the theme of this blog is different (for all the proper reasons). If you do not mind me asking, what’s the name of this theme or would it be a especially designed affair? It’s significantly better compared to the themes I use for some of my blogs.
Hi, the WordPress theme is called “Suffusion” and is very flexible and almost completely customisable.
