College Players Present ‘The Sound of Music’

Based on the true story of the von Trapp Family Singers, The Sound of Music tells the tale of young postulant Maria Rainer, whose free spirit has trouble fitting into the rules and regulations of Nonnberg Abbey. Maria is sent by the Mother Abbess to serve as the governess for seven motherless children.

Amidst the horrors of World War II, Maria transforms the von Trapp family home from a place of dour rules and regulations to one filled with joy, laughter, and music. In the process, Maria wins the hearts of all seven children--and their father, Captain von Trapp.

With the Nazi’s closing in Maria, the Captain, and the children to flee over the mountains of Switzerland to safety, taking the words of the Mother Abbess to heart: “Climb Every Mountain… till you find your dream.”
