“When you know the notes to sing, you can sing most anything!”

International smash-hit show Sing-a-Long-a Sound of Music returns to New Zealand for limited shows this February in association with the Hero Festival.

Sing-a-Long-a Sound of Music was created in 1999 and has now become a worldwide hit, playing to more than a million people across the globe – from Oslo, Norway to India, Holland to Canada, and even filled the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles! The show regularly sells out its monthly performances in London’s West End.

For those who are not yet converted, Sing-a-Long-a Sound of Music is a screening of the classic Julie Andrews film musical in glorious, full-screen technicolor, complete with subtitles so that the whole audience can sing along! The fun-filled show starts with a vocal warm-up led by the evening’s host, who also takes the audience through their complimentary ‘magic moments pack’, containing various props to be used at strategic points throughout the film.

“Then of course there is the famous fancy-dress competition in which everyone who has come in costume is invited onto the stage to show off their fantastic tailoring skills. Costumes have included nuns of both genders (including a pregnant nun!), girls (and boys!) in white dresses with blue satin sashes, a plumber (as in Christopher ‘Plumber’) and a lonely goatherd!

So get those vocal chords warmed up, cut up the chintz curtains and hurry down for another dose of the international smash-hit sensation! Book early because this show sells out.

    My version of "Favourite things"

    I cook him some dinner and do up my hair
    Clean out the toilet and talk with some flair
    Try to look pretty while doing these things
    That's what I do for a wed--ding ring!!

    Try not to act witchy and never complain
    Make sure that my bag and shoes look the same
    Wear funny nails and stuff on my face
    That's a part of the drama in the wedding race!!

    When I'm running
    on the treadmill
    till I'm feeling less fat
    I realise I'm running for that wedding ring and then I seeeeeeee I'm mad

    Shirley has written to Edelweiss, used to be sung as a lullaby to my daughter Taihli

    Tai- h-li, Tai-h-li
    You bring Joy to me....e
    Your so sweet, sugar sweet
    I do love you my Darling!

    every morning you peek a boo
    and you coo so dearly
    Honey girl, mummy's girl
    I will love you forever!

    Repeat the verses again

    I am 39, going on 40
    That's when things start to sag
    Boobs start to droop
    And wrinkles regroup
    The spring in your step starts to lag

    He is 40 going on 41
    And looks much better with age
    Eats what he likes
    Gets fit on that bike
    I’m filled with silent rage

    I need someone older and wiser
    Who looks as old as me
    Greying of hair
    Wrinkles please appear
    Now that’s what I ‘d like to see!
