Tickets are expected to sell quickly, so the students hope you will act right away.

“The Sound of Music”stars YHSstudents in all four grade levels. There are also three younger residents, ages 8, 11 and 13, in the cast.

The producer and musical director is Alison Sciarrino, with Travis Costell as production manager.

Ginny Corless and Michelle Ousey are the directors.

Ethel Jordan will provide piano accompaniment for the show. Jacob Burrow and/or Nick Starkey will accompany some songs on the guitar.

The production is an independent project and will serve as the senior project for many YHS students involved in direction, production, set-design and the performance itself.
