Come October 15, 2011, Resorts World Manila is bringing to the Philippines one of the most beloved Broadway musicals of all time—The Sound of Music.
Based on the memoirs of Maria Augusta von Trapp, The Story of the Trapp Family Singers, the musical has touched people’s hearts all over the world with its inspiring tale of love, courage and family values, told through the immortal songs of Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein including "The Sound of Music," "Edelweiss," "My Favorite Things," "Climb Ev'ry Mountain" and "Do-Re-Mi."
People who grew up loving the musical, as well today’s young audiences, will be enthralled as the real-life story of the von Trapp family comes alive once more onstage.
World-class theater actress Joanna Ampil will portray the role of Maria, while award-winning thespian Audie Gemora will play Captain von Trapp. Musical scoring will be provided by no less than the Manila Philharmonic Orchestra, with Maestro Roel Colmenar as the Musical Director. The production will be directed by Roxanne Lapus.
Audiences will be able to catch The Sound of Music six times weekly at the 1,500-seat Newport Performing Arts Theater, one of the country’s grandest entertainment venues today. With its LED wall backdrop—the largest ever built in the Philippines—as well as state-of-the-art light and sound technology, this theater is fully equipped to recreate the breathtaking Austrian scenery and bring the beautiful music to life.
