Austria, 1938. Free-spirited nun Maria is sent away from her abbey to become governess to the widowed Captain von Trapp's seven children. She brings music and laughter back to his unfeeling household, but the future holds more joy and jeopardy than she ever dreamed possible.
The Sound of Music was Rodgers & Hammerstein's last and perhaps most treasured musical, and is now produced at Chichester for the first time. The glorious score is a box of delights, from Climb Ev'ry Mountain, My Favorite Things and Edelweiss to Do-Re-Mi and The Sound of Music itself. This brand-new production of the original stage musical is directed by Adam Penford, Artistic Director of Nottingham Playhouse, where his productions include Piaf and The Madness of George III; and designed by Robert Jones (Murder on the Orient Express, The Unfriend, Oklahoma!).
Gina Beck, whose performance as Nellie Forbush in Rodgers & Hammerstein's South Pacific in 2021 was also acclaimed in London and on a UK tour, returns to play Maria.
