The Sound of Music at Ohio Theatre

Ever since Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II, alongside playwrights Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse, created ‘The Sound Of Music’, it became clear that what would be their very last work, has been destined for global triumphs.

A musical with a more substantial amount of well-known numbers is yet to be written; a production that can remain as relevant and loved for nearly seven decades as ‘The Sound Of Music’ does not exist; and a tale as wholesome, yet touching on major social issues, is yet to be created.

To date, ‘The Sound Of Music’ has been revived numerous times - all to much acclaim. It racked up no less than five Tony Awards, a Theatre World Award, and an Outer Critics Circle Special Award, alongside plenty of nominations. ‘The Sound Of Music’ has also been adapted into a tremendously successful film released in 1965, and still enjoyed around the globe.

‘The Sound Of Music’, inspired by the 1949 memoir of Maria von Trapp, follows the tale of Maria, a free-spirited nun, who after stepping in as the governess of the seven children of Captain Georg von Trapp, brings back music and happiness to the family. The family is faced with many troubles - from the imminent Nazi-threat brought about by the Anschluss to the blooming romance between Captain von Trapp - man who vowed to marry another, and Maria, a nun.

There is no doubt that there is plenty to admire about ‘The Sound Of Music’: from the incredible stagecraft of the all-star, age-defying cast, to the ageless, wonderful music that becomes an earworm without any effort; from the rich orchestrations to the gorgeous sets that change effortlessly from a grey cathedral to the old Austrian magnificence of the Von Trapp house; from the nostalgic tale about overcoming difficulty and wonderful tale of love, resilience, and music to the powerhouse cast that embodies their parts with excellence, masterfully delivers the much-adored music, and steals hearts from the moment the curtain rises.

The song has it inch-perfect: the hills are indeed alive with the sound of music, and this winter, you’ll sing once more.
