Sound of Music at V.P. Henry: A don't miss presentation

Raves for Musical at Lindsey Wilson College: 'Those who haven't seen the Sound of Music should do so. It's really first class, and the talent - all local will absolutely stun those seeing it for the first time. Maggie Coleman would give Julie Andrews a run for her money. And others who you would might not expect to sound any better than you or I sound like larks. All of the acting is well above average for local theater. Well above.' - GEORGE KOLBENSCHLAG
The Sound of Music will be performed three more times this week at 7pmCT each evening, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, July 17, 18, and 19, 2014, in the V.P. Henry Auditorium, 210 Lindsey Wilson Street, Columbia, KY.

By George Kolbenschlag

The Hill was alive with the Sound of Music Friday and Saturday evening and will be again next Thursday, Friday and Saturday. It's a great evening's entertainment.



It was TheaterFest 2014 at Lindsey Wilson's amazing production of The Sound of Music. It's an enthusiastic show and the talent was outstanding.

I hesitate to mention names because the whole cast, from little Gretl (Karsyn Collins) to the Mother Abbess (Stephanie Archey) was outstanding.

But while I expect they won't like being singled out, two need special mention: Robert Brock, assistant professor of theater at Lindsey Wilson, who put this incredible show together and who found local talent that I want to hear and see again and Maggie Coleman who played and sang the lead - Maria - in a manner that would have given Julie Andrews pause. Maggie was not alone on stage. Almost the entire cast sang at some point, and all were excellent.

What an amazing, happy, show.

It's obvious good, solid theater has arrived in Adair County and Brock is on to something with his Summer Fest shows.

The show, in Lindsey's V.P. Henry Auditorium in the main administration building, 210 Lindsey Wilson Street, will be performed three more times this week at 7pmCT each evening, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, July 17, 18, and 19, 2014, in the V.P. Henry Auditorium, 210 Lindsey Wilson Street, Columbia, KY. - George Kolbenschag
