The world’s most popular musical The Sound of Music is coming to Hong Kong with a lavish production from the home of West End musical theatre, the famous London Palladium!
Presented by Lunchbox Theatrical Productions with auditions held in conjunction with HKYAF, we are now seeking talented young performers to play the iconic roles of the von Trapp children. This is a fantastic once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to perform alongside musical theatre professionals.
Since its first performance on Broadway 55 years ago, The Sound of Music has been singing its way into everyone’s hearts with some of the most memorable songs ever performed on the musical theatre stage, including Sixteen Going on Seventeen, Climb Ev’ry Mountain, The Lonely Goatherd, My Favorite Things, The Sound of Music, Do-Re-Mi and Edelweiss. This May and June, after a tour around the world with stops including UK, Canada, South Africa, Singapore, New Zealand and China, this iconic show will take to the stage in Hong Kong - don't miss it!
