The Sound of Music by Tip Top Productions

Tip Top Productions return to Storyhouse with one of the most beloved musicals of all time. The final collaboration between Rodgers & Hammerstein was destined to become the world's most beloved musical. Featuring a trove of cherished songs, including Climb Ev'ry Mountain, My Favourite Things, Do-Re-Mi, Sixteen Going on Seventeen and the title number, The Sound of Music won the hearts of audiences worldwide, earning five Tony Awards and five Oscars. The inspirational story, based on the memoir of Maria Augusta Trapp, follows an ebullient postulate who serves as governess to the seven children of the imperious Captain von Trapp, bringing music and joy to the household. But as the forces of Nazism take hold of Austria, Maria and the entire von Trapp family must make a moral decision.  Founded by Peter Swingler in 1989 with openness at its heart Tip Top Productions has become well known in Chester and beyond as the community theatre group with professional standards, whilst remaining welcoming and friendly for all.
