The Sound of Music Reviews

Broadway World- Highly Recommended

"...An enduring, Tony Award-winning classic, THE SOUND OF MUSIC is one of those ubiquitous, stalwart musical theatre properties that have stood the test of time and manages to be a frequent crowd-pleaser with every new production, whether as a live televised event, yet another national touring revival, or even, yes, as a local regional production."

Stage and Cinema- Highly Recommended

"...If you need a panacea for the post-Covid blues make your way to La Mirada Theatre for exceptional musical theatre. Patrons who expect to see a familiar (or overly-familiar) The Sound of Music oozing sentimentality and adorable children will be impressed by producer McCoy-Rigby’s vision and blown away by a stunning team of talented thespians. Who would have thought this warhorse offered so much intelligent emotion and honest warmth?"

LA Splash- Highly Recommended

"...Inspired by the true story of the von Trapp family based on Maria von Trapp's memoir, "The Story of the Trapp Family Singers," THE SOUND OF MUSIC has wowed audiences and critics alike since it was first introduced on Broadway in 1959. With music by Richard Rodgers and lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II (book by Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse) and originally starring Mary Martin and Theodore Bikel, the musical won five Tony awards, including best musical, and was adapted into an award-winning film in 1961 starring Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer."
