One of the most beloved musicals of all time will finally appear on the Footlight stage. The story centers around Maria, a novice who just may not have what it takes to become a nun. The Mother Superior places her in the Von Trapp household to be the governess to the seven children. It only takes minutes until the free spirited Maria butts heads with the strict patriarch of the family, The Baron Von Trapp. We experience amusing disagreements, romance and finally wedded bliss. The music is Rogers and Hammerstein at their best with such tunes as Climb Every Mountain, I Am Sixteen Going On Seventeen and My Favorite Things. This is THE musical for all ages. A perfect solution for a family outing.
