There is still so much left of an exciting season of top Broadway shows coming to Grand Rapids, such as Phantom and The Book of Mormon, that you're left wondering how is Broadway Grand Rapids going to top this season.  Suddenly they announce next seasons shows, and your saying, WOW! They've done it again.

Celebrate the 50th anniversary of one of the biggest movie musicals of all time, TCM Presents: The Sound of Music, in partnership with Turner Classic Movies (TCM) and Twentieth Century Fox, to select U.S. movie theaters on Sunday, April 19 and Wednesday, April 22, 2015 at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. each day. The good news is that Grand Rapids has been chosen as one of the markets to show The Sound of Music

The Sound of Music is returning to the Grand Rapids Civic Stage, November 15 – December 15. Loved by millions, the show features music by Richard Rodgers, lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II and book by Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse. The beloved Rodgers and Hammerstein Family Musical was based off the memoirs of Maria Augusta Trapp’s “The Trapp Family Singers”.

How do you top this?  That may well be the thought after Grand Rapids Civic Theater announced the new season of show for 2013-2014. It's an incredible line-up, bringing a number of shows never seen on the Civic stage.
