Encore Theatre Collective is set to delight audiences at the ASB Waterfront Theatre with one of the world's most cherished musicals. Don't miss The Sound of Music this December – an unforgettable family event.
Enchanting audiences for nearly 65 years, The Sound of Music is based on the true story of postulant Maria Rainer and the von Trapp family singers. While Maria decides whether she wants to pursue becoming a Nun, she takes a job as governess to a large and very strict naval family. Through her love of music, Maria falls in love with the seven children, and eventually their widowed father, Captain von Trapp. The show features many household standards, including ‘Climb Ev’ry Mountain’, ‘Edelweiss’ and ‘Do-Re-Mi’.
Last seen spreading Christmas magic with the New Zealand Premiere of Elf the Musical, Encore Theatre Collective continues to astonish and delight audiences across the Auckland region. The Sound of Music promises to be no exception, with beautiful costumes and glorious music, as well as a sensational cast of first-rate young performers aged 6-24.
The Sound of Music is the perfect family outing – whether it’s your first or your 50th time seeing the show, it will quickly become one of your favourite things!
