The Sound of Music stage show is opening for the first time in Salzburg at the Salzburger Landestheater. It will be running from 23rd October 2011 until June 2012 with a possibility of an extension. The musical will be performed in German by Uwe Kroger as Captain von Trapp and Wietske van Tongeren as Maria. However for international visitors there are English subtitles.
The long awaited Sound of Music Family Scrapbook that you have all been asking about is soon to be available. As Angela Cartwright announced, "It really is a scrapbook - it's got pockets with pull-out premiere tickets, call sheets, different notes from Julie Andrews and stories we wrote on the set as kids." In it there are loads of never-before-seen photos, giving a totally different perspective of the movie - from the children's point of view. We will be letting our readers know the exact release date in October and will be available for purchase here on The Sound of Music Guide website.
