IOL Lifestyle and Artscape are giving away 5 double tickets to see The Sound of Music at the Artscape for the 10 May 2018.
Back from an international tour, The Sound Of Music hits Cape Town from 6 – 27 May. Andrew Lloyd Webber says that The Sound of Music contains arguably the best-loved songs of all time.
This lavish production, presented in South Africa by Pieter Toerien, David Ian and The Really Useful Group, tells the story of the Von Trapp family’s flight across the mountains from Austria, with its unforgettable score that includes some of the most memorable songs ever performed on the musical stage including “My Favourite Things”, “Edelweiss”, “Do-Re- Mi”, “Sixteen Going on Seventeen”, “The Lonely Goatherd”, “Climb Ev’ry Mountain”, and the title song “The Sound of Music”.
Featuring an all-star South African cast back from their international tour, The Sound of Music is a must-see!
With words and music by the legendary Rogers and Hammerstein (Oklahoma!, Carousel, South Pacific, The King and I), The Sound of Music originally premiered on Broadway in 1959 to record-breaking advance ticket sales, where it won eight Tony Awards - including “Best Musical”.
The show opened in London in 1961 and became the longest-running American musical of its generation.
The 1965 Hollywood film, which starred Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer, won five Oscars, including “Best Picture”, and quickly became the highest-grossing film in history. Even today, The Sound of Music remains the most successful movie musical in history.
The 2018 production will star Andre Schwartz as Captain von Trapp and Carmen Pretorius as Maria
