One of Broadway’s most beloved musicals is headed back to Philadelphia.
“The Sound of Music” returns to the Academy of Music from March 31 through April 5 as part of a new North American tour marking 65 years since the show first debuted on Broadway.
Directed by three-time Tony Award winner Jack O’Brien, the production tells the story of Maria, a spirited governess who brings music and heart to the von Trapp family in Austria as World War II looms. The score features iconic songs including “My Favorite Things,” “Do-Re-Mi,” “Edelweiss,” “Climb Ev’ry Mountain” and the title song.
Accessible performances, including ASL, audio description and captioning, are scheduled during the run.
Tickets are available at ensembleartsphilly.org, by phone at 215-893-1999 or in person at the Academy of Music box office.
