Elicia MacKenzie is Maria!
Andrew Lloyd Webber, David Ian and David Mirvish present the North American premiere of the new smash-hit London production of THE SOUND OF MUSIC at Toronto's Princess of Wales Theatre starring the winner of CBC's How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria?
Based on the uplifting true story of the Von Trapp family and the good natured Maria, THE SOUND OF MUSIC was the last collaboration between Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II, becoming one of the most successful Oscar-winning film musicals of all time.
The score for THE SOUND OF MUSIC touches the hearts of all ages and brims over with some of the most memorable songs ever performed on the musical stage including My Favourite Things, Do-Re-Mi, Edelweiss, Climb Every Mountain, Sixteen Going on Seventeen, The Lonely Goatherd and of course the glorious title song The Sound of Music.
This timeless family classic is overseen in Canada by director Jeremy Sams, choreographer Arlene Philips and designer Robert Jones, all of whom won raves from the London critics for their superb work on the West End production.
