<DIV><FONT size=4 face="Times New Roman"><BR> On June 23, 2011, the Rodgers
and Hammerstein musical, The Sound of Music, will open at the Salt Box
Ministries, 408 West Market Street, Canal Fulton, Ohio. This wonderful
play about the Von Trapp Family Singers, who fled Austria at the time of the
German takeover in 1938, will be presented on four nights beginning on June 23
and ending on June 26. All performances will be at 7:30 pm.
Matt King, with the aid of his music director, Jackie Piatt, is directing
this play, which will be presented in two acts. <BR> Starring as
Maria, the independent and impish novice at the convent in Strasburg, Austria,

which was presented on the St. Helena III last summer. Captain Georg Von
Trapp will be played by newcomer Tom Majercik. That is newcomer to the Canal
Fulton stage. Tom has an extensive background in acting and singing
throughout the entire Northeast Ohio area. <BR> Uncle Max, the man
who forms and promotes the Von Trapp Family Singers, will be played by Bob
Boston, who was last seen as Cervantes and Don Quixote in Man of La Mancha. The
Baroness, the Captain’s first love, is played by Faith King, who is making her
debut on the Canal Fulton Stage. The Mother Abbess will be portrayed by Theresa
Graves, who is best remembered for her portrayal of Bubbie in Crossing Delancey.
Rolf, the boy who loves Liesel, the oldest Von Trapp daughter, but is drawn into
the poison of Nazism, is played by Jonathan Neumann. Jon was last seen playing
Dad in Caught in the Net. Ben Currans plays the evil Herr Zeller. Hunter
