aww! It looks good! I've always wanted to be in SOM and for some reason I've always wanted to be Gretl, I think I'm a little too old though.
haha
I love the Von Trapp kids outfits! So cute!

Kitness

Well, not much action in this topic but I thought I'd add anyhow. Here's the link to my SoM gallery - from my April 2006 production. I played Liesl and it was fabulously awesome. Yes indeedy.

ANYHOO. The link:

I love all the costumes (especially the trio) and your sets are fine, MsDivaKate. Oh, and don't worry about the kids. When I did SoM, the median age for the WHOLE cast was 14.

Kitness, I love all your sets--especially the gazebo. Periaktoi seem to be popular to use in SoM.

Kitness

Thank you! My wee brother built the sets, so yay, glad you like them Smile

jazzygirl you guys look awesome (which one are you?). Were you professional? Semi-professional? Because your sets and costumes are fabulous.

musikal_geek

I don't have any of the actual production, because it was professional, so I think that would be illegal. But I've got a bundle of pics from backstage that shows the costumes. I wish I could show you the set, it was flippin' unbelievable!! Anyways, I was Kurt's understudy, so they added me as a street kid in Confidence and an altar boy in the wedding. There was another girl understudying and she was those two parts with me. She understudied Marta & Brigitta. The other understudies for the children looked old enough to be in the party, etc.
Oh, and we alternated Gretl's between performances, because it would be hard to get a six-year old to do eight shows a week, fifty performances in one month and two weeks.
ANYWAYS....the pictures:

Here is a lot of people: Back row (L to R) - Capt. von Trapp, Max, Soldier, Maria, Fredriech (sp?). Front row (L to R) - Louisa, Kurt (I dunno what the hell he's doing!) Marta, Brigitta, Gretl, Leisl's bottom half, Altar Boy (me)

These are some of the von Trapp children in the clothes that Maria made them.
Back row (L to R): Fredriech, Maria, Louisa. Front row (L to R): Marta, Kurt, Gretl

The von Trapp children in their wedding outfits. Back row (L to R): Hairdresser, Louisa, Leisl, Fredriech. Middle Row (L to R): Brigitta, Kurt, Marta. Front row: Gretl (the cuter one Razz

)

The nuns. Mother Abbess is in the back row in the Center (the one without a hat). Leisl is also in there as a nun, she is in the back row, on the far right-hand side. The one next to Leisl also played Frau Schmidt. The one in the back row, on the far left-hand side (with the glasses) also played the Baroness.

The Mother Abbess.

The Baroness & Frau Schmidt (Frau also played Berthe). It's a weird combination of characters, but oh well.

This is the cuter Gretl backstage.

Rolf and Leisl (out of costume, of course):

These are the two street kids (I'm the boy -- remember, this production was about four years ago now!)

Maria in her Wedding Gown (she had to change in, like a minute into this thing).

This is Brigitta & Marta backstage. I don't know what they're doing with their shirts, and I don't really want to know...

Sorry there's none of the set and the live-action, but there's a glimpse at my production, anyways. I hope you liked them! Smile

You look like Kate Todd.

jazzygirlsings

^I'll take that as a compliment! Thank you!

She's pretty, but I'm sure she wears a size 2...and I don't! LOL!

Your pics are great, too, BTW! It looks like you had a lot of fun! Smile

musikal_geek

You should most definitely take that as a compliment!! Very Happy

Our production rocked. We were all so tight by the end of it. I bawled at the end of the last show. In fact, I bawled onstage, during the curtain call. Yup, that's me. Sappy.

jazzygirlsings

^I did that at the end of my first run of SOM with a different company. We did that show for 7 months, I think...yeah...7 months!

The show I have pics of was okay, but it was so short because it was stock...two weeks to rehearse, two to perform! Sad

It's never long enough!

Kitness

jazzygirlsings

^I forgot to mention how much I LOVED your pics!

You know how you can look at certain snapshots from a performance and you can just tell when someone's a good actor? That was how I felt when I saw the pics of you in action! Smile

(Especially the "WEEEEE!" Pic!)

And I like the white window set piece that you guys had!

There were so many interesting pics that it got me excited to do SOM again! I've done this show in two different productions and you know what? I would do it again! LOL!

Kitness

musikal_geek

I would do this show again in a heartbeat.

Kitness

^ I think it's one of those shows you don't really get sick of doing. Our Mother Abbess had played the role twice before she did my production and Our Sister Margaretta had played Sister Sophia before.

Also, incase anyone was curious, I have some video clips from my production, on my YouTube channel. They're here:

Lovely photos.

jazzygirlsings

^It's so easy to make photos from SOM look cheesy...(See also-badly posed Lonely Goatherd pic in my pics! LOL!)

Baker

I love all the pics!

It seems like the worst mistakes for Sound of Music costumes are made with the Baroness...

Here are my pictures:

http://drothhaar.smugmug.com/gallery/48467

I was Friedrich. Smile

And since it seems to be semi-popular to list the actual ages of the kids:

Liesl - college... probably about 19/20
Friedrich - 13
Louisa - 11
Kurt - 11
Brigitta - 9
Marta - 11
Gretl - 6 I think

Kitness

^ I loved our Baroness' costumes - I'm not sure that they were "period" per say, but she had an odd body type and was really hard to fit and she felt so pretty in her costumes that it was great to see.

Just for fun, the ages of my kids:

Liesl (me!) - 21
Friedrich - 12
Louisa - 13
Kurt - 12
Brigitta - 12
Marta - 8
Gretl - 8

what_the_heck013

Baker, awesome sets!

I've done SoM three times (and still no pics for you). It would take a lot of convincing to get me to perform in it, but I would love to direct a dark, sort of Brechtian production, having the actors play the instruments and projecting images of the holocaust.

I was in this show at my high school when I was a freshman. I played Kurt (don't worry I was 4'11" then, so I looked the part. Here were our ages:

Liesl: 14
Freidrich: 14
Luisa: 16
Kurt: 14
Brigitta: 16
Marta: 10
Gretl: 9

I know that the ages are kind of all over the place, but the heights for the kids were correct, as in we went from smallest (Gretl) to tallest (Liesl).

what_the_heck013

Our kids were:
Liesl-15
Rolf (me)-14
Friedrich-15
Luisa-13
Brigitta-14
Marta-12
Gretl-7

musikal_geek

Liesl: 27 (she looked younger, didn't she!)
Fredriech: 14
Louisa: 15
Kurt: 11
Brigitta: 13
Marta: 11
Gretls: 6 & 8
