We saw the show in Toronto a couple of weeks ago and thoroughly enjoyed it. The vocal talent in the show is spectacular. The rotating mountain top on the set was a unique sight for me. The acting, overall, was ok.

You will probably want to see the movie (again) after being part of the audience for the theatrical version. The film version works just as well musically but unfolds smoother dramatically.

Nevertheless, I can see why this is another hit for Andrew Lloyd Weber.

Update: Thanks to Rudy for his interest. See comment number 1 below.

    You should update your post to link to the Sound of Music Toronto website. It has video interviews which are immensely informative.

    Oh man. I had to pick a date in January to get good, cheap seats. I can’t wait. I will be watching the movie almost everyday until then (almost because I will also be watching a lot of Christmas movies)!!

    My favorite of all musicals, I was 5 the first time I saw it so spectacular even at that age.
