An all New ‘Sound of Music’
07.25.16
An all-new production of “The Sound of Music” is underway now at Segerstrom Center for the Arts through Sunday, July 31. Directed by three-time Tony Award winner Jack O’Brien, the lavish new production is making its premiere at Segerstrom Center as part of a North American tour.
The beloved musical story of Maria and the von Trapp family is thrilling theatergoers with its Tony,- Grammy- and Academy Award-winning Best Score, including “My Favorite Things,” “Do-Re-Mi,” “Climb Ev’ry Mountain,” “Edelweiss” and the title song.
According to director Jack O’Brien, “The Sound of Music” has been in our ears for decades, as it deserves to be. But it might be time to look once more, and more closely, at this remarkable work which, I feel, begins to reveal itself as deeper, richer, and more powerful than ever. It’s no longer ‘your mother’s’ familiar “Sound of Music.” We are tearing off the varnish of the past from one of the great glories of our theatergoing experience and making it fresh! This is an opportunity we’ve all longed to create!”
Tickets for “The Sound of Music” start at $29 and may be purchased online at SCFTA.org, the Box Office at 600 Town Center Drive in Costa Mesa or by calling 714.556.2787.
