The Story


The Sound of Music”, Book by Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse:  The final collaboration between Rodgers & Hammerstein was destined to become the world’s most beloved musical.  When a postulant proves too high-spirited for the religious life, she is dispatched to serve as governess for the seven children of a widowed naval Captain.  Her growing rapport with the youngsters, coupled with her generosity of spirit, gradually captures the heart of the stern Captain, and they marry.  Upon returning from their honeymoon, they discover that Austria has been invaded by the Nazis, who demand the Captain’s immediate service in their navy.  The family’s narrow escape over the mountains to Switzerland on the eve of World War II provides one of the most thrilling and inspirational finales ever presented in the theatre.  The motion picture version remains the most popular movie musical of all time.


*Hannah Rivers plays Maria Rainer.  Captain Georg von Trapp is portrayed by Cameron Williams. His children are played by Kate Kellum (Liesl), Patrick Burke (Fredrich), Caroline Hale (Louisa), Elijah Short (Kurt), Maggie Booz (Brigitta), Riley Cullen (Marta), and Amanda Burke (Gretl).  Steffanie Vaughn is the Mother Abbess; Mary Lea Williams is Elsa Schrader; Roberts Bass is Max Detweiler.  A large cast of community volunteer actors portray nuns, guards, neighbors and house staff for the von Trapp family.  


Alvin Tyndall is the Director for The Sound of Music.  He currently serves as the Artistic Director of the Stained Glass Playhouse and has directed over 25 productions for the playhouse.
