Both sold out theatres burst with enthusiastic (and many costumed) moviegoers who channeled their inner Maria, Captain von Trapp, or any of the seven von Trapp children and belted out lyrics and dialogue to the 1965 hit.
I once again savored the wonder that is the voice of actress Peggy Wood who, as Mother Abbess, brings the audience to unknown heights with her blessedly powerful "Climb Every Mountain."
Thanks to the friends who joined in the fun. There is something magical about friends from different parts of our lives meeting at such a silly, joy-filled event. I inhaled all of it. Here is the link to my post from the 2011 show and photos from 2012.
