The final collaboration between Rodgers & Hammerstein was
destined to become the world's most beloved musical. When a postulant proves
too high-spirited for the religious life, she is dispatched to serve as
governess for the seven children of a widowed naval Captain. Her growing
rapport with the youngsters, coupled with her generosity of spirit, gradually
captures the heart of the stern Captain, and they marry. Upon returning from
their honeymoon they discover that Austria has been invaded by the Nazis, who
demand the Captain's immediate service in their navy. The family's narrow escape
over the mountains to Switzerland on the eve of World War II provides one of
the most thrilling and inspirational finales ever presented in the theatre. The
whole family is invited to join us as we bring the most popular movie musical
of all time to the Mitchell Performing Arts Center April 25-May 3. Tickets on
sale
March 1st! For more information and to purchase tickets,
