“The Sound of Music” has been a favorite for audiences around the world, both on screen and on stage, for more than 60 years. Now, a piece of Broadway history has made its way to Durham.
The Broadway musical that first debuted in 1959 and was later made into the iconic film starring Julie Andrews in 1965 is currently on tour and will be wrapping up its stop at the Durham Performing Arts Center this weekend.
Two of the shows stars, Cayleigh Capaldi, who plays Maria Rainer, and Kevin Earley, who plays Captain Georg Von Trapp, stop by to share behind-the-scenes insights from the show and talk about why it has continued to captivate audiences for more than six decades. Check out the video for Spectrum News 1’s conversation with Capaldi and Earley.
The show will also be making stops in Charlotte and Greensboro in the coming months. For information on the show’s schedule and tickets, click here.
