SYNOPSIS
This production of the Broadway classic musical is a special collaboration of the Manassas Symphony Orchestra and Prince William Little Theatre. Come and join us in Merchant Hall and listen to the delightful music of MSO and the singing, and dancing of PWLT actors as we bring to life the story of the Von Trapp Family singers, one of the world's best-known concert groups in the era immediately preceding World War II. This musical tells the story of Maria, who takes a job as governess to a large family while she decides whether to become a nun. She falls in love with the children and their widowed father, Captain von Trapp. He is ordered to accept a commission in the German navy, but he opposes the Nazis. He and Maria decide to flee from Austria with the children. This family friendly production will conclude with a sing along that you won’t want to miss. Come with the family and join us for this three day only special event.
