Sound of Music Sing-Along in NYC

[irrelephant]

Are there any NY/NJ/CT area MLers care to join me?  Sunday May 19th, 1pm at the Brooklyn Center for the Performing Arts.

[wannabe]

They do this at the Hollywood Bowl every summer and it is so much fun!

I was so obsessed when I was a kid that my parents took me to Stowe, VT for my 6th birthday, where we stayed at the Trapp Family Lodge and I MET MARIA VON FREAKING TRAPP. She walked through the dining room one night, came right over to our table, said "Happy birthday, Amy"! and kissed the top of my head. I nearly died from the excitement.

That's so awesome!  My sister, our kids, and my mom met Julie Andrews a couple years ago when she was doing a book signing tour.  And my sister and I met two of the actors who played the kids (Liesl and Marta) when Charmian Carr (Liesl) was doing her book signing tour.  We are major SOM nerds.
