Show Description
The final collaboration between Rodgers & Hammerstein was destined
to become the world's most beloved musical. When a postulant proves too
high-spirited for the religious life, she is dispatched to serve as
governess for the seven children of a widowed naval Captain. Her growing
rapport with the youngsters, coupled with her generosity of spirit,
gradually captures the heart of the stern Captain, and they marry. Upon
returning from their honeymoon they discover that Austria has been
invaded by the Nazis, who demand the Captain's immediate service in
their navy. The family's narrow escape over the mountains to Switzerland
on the eve of World War II provides one of the most thrilling and
inspirational finales ever presented in the theatre. The motion picture
version remains the most popular movie musical of all time.
