See 'Sound of Music' in Glen Cove Sunday

The Morgan Park Summer Music Festival continues Sunday, with the Plaza Production’s presentation of "The Sound of Music." Be sure to bring the kids. Free to the public, the show begins at 7:30 p.m. in Morgan Park.

Rodgers and Hammerstein’s "The Sound of Music" tells the story of Maria who is sent from her convent to serve as governess for the seven children of widower Captain Von Trapp. By bringing the magic of music into their lives, Maria soon wins over the children and the captain as well. "The Sound of Music" features such enduring classics as "My Favorite Things," "Do-Re-Me," "Climb Every Mountain" and "Edelweiss."

Blankets, chairs and picnic are definitely encouraged, but alcoholic beverages are not permitted in Morgan Park.  Morgan Park is located on Germaine Street at the end of Landing Road in Glen Cove.  In the event of rain, the performance will be held in St. Patrick’s Parish Hall, Pearsall Avenue, Glen Cove.  For further information, call (516) 671-0017. Email us at morganparkmusic@yahoo.com or visit us at www.morganparkmusic.org.
