MAY 8 – JUNE 1 (Thu-Sat @ 8pm and Sun matinee) The play focuses on the character of Rolfe from The Sound of Music and follows his story parallel to the plot we know from the film. His tentative pursuit of the eldest Von Trapp daughter is encouraged by the Nazis, who hint at his advancement in the Party. He also has a boyfriend who is urging Rolfe to leave Austria with him as things get more dangerous for homosexuals. Relevant to current events, it shows how a young man can be flattered and manipulated by a political party, plus it queers a well-loved story.
