The Sound of Music

The Von Trapp children introduce themselves

Loved by adults and children of all ages, Rodgers and Hammerstein’s final musical collaboration features such well-known favourites as Climb Every Mountain, Edelweiss, My Favourite Things, Do-Re-Mi and of course, The Sound of Music.

The DCS 2013 production featured a sublime local cast.  Roles of the Von Trapp children were doubled to give more opportunites to talented young performers.

An additional performance was added to the 8 show season as the last six shows sold out after opening weekend.  Audiences were in excess of 3500!
