The Sound of Music
July 21 - 26, 2026
The hills are alive...you know the rest. Everyone's favorite tale of nannies, nuns, and Nazis is heading out on a fresh North American tour. The last show written by legendary duo Rodgers and Hammerstein, this iconic musical boasts a score that reads like the Greatest Hits of musical theatre, with songs including 'My Favourite Things', 'Edelweiss' and 'Do-Re-Mi'. It's inspired an Oscar-winning movie, a tv talent show and, as the 18 million viewers who tuned in to see NBC's live special prove, remains an incredibly popular piece of American pop culture.

While everyone knows the story off by heart, that doesn't mean that there's nothing new to be said about The Sound of Music. Helming this tour is Jack O'Brien (Hairspray), one of Broadway's most accomplished directors, who's seeking to strip away some of the more kitschy elements that have become attached to the musical over the years. The three-time Tony Award winner told the New York Times that he's not "trotting out your mother's version."
