"Katherine Damisch deftly navigates Maria's emotional journey of self discovery. She convincingly wears the many hats required. Vocally, she makes the tough role seem effortless. Matt Whalen as Captain von Trap brought a depth of emotion I had previously not seen in the role. I felt his struggle to stand true to his principles while faced with impossible choices. Sadie Wynne also deserves some special recognition for her "Climb Every Mountain." I was invested in all of her scenes. The large cast put on a memorable version of "The Sound of Music. The show  contains all the fun and nostalgia required and a bit more for those looking to swim in deeper waters."

We went last night and it was wonderful! The voices were superb- "Sue M."

I attended last Saturday evening's performance of The Sound of Music. I truly encourage anyone who would like to see a beautiful story and hear gorgeous music to buy a ticket and go... at least once! I went twice and was so glad I did! it was a joy to watch this wonderful company of actors and to hear the beautiful voices. Now go get your tickets!  It will be one of the highlights of your summer. -Betty H.

"I'm not ordinarily musical theatre fan but their adaptation of the "The Sound of Music" was very entertaining and captivating. We will definitely be going to their future performances." -Don M.
