On June 30th I joined one crazy crew of fans at the Sound of Music Sing-A-Long at the Hollywood Bowl. It's kind of like the Rocky Horror Picture Show, but for kids. And strange fanatical adults.
These photos were shamelessly stolen from Claire. Of course I only stole the, uh, relevant ones.
Claire kept snapping pictures so I decided to start pointing out the object of interest in each one, in case it wasn't obvious. This is the only example I stole from her site though.
We pretty much baked for the first hour or so before the sun dipped past the trees, during the pre-game entertainment.
The pre-game was emceed by Melissa Peterman, who was actually quite entertaining. So much so I am almost tempted to check out an episode of the show of Reba where she apparently is part of the cast. Almost.
The real endurance part of this mad race was the endless costume parade. Of course it's cute in the beginning but wow, two hours? Yikes.
One of the winners of the costume contest is pictured here. They're the curtains that Maria uses to make play clothes for the kids.
One of the great scenes in the movie, complete with subtitles by which to sing-a-long.
This (third from the left) is the actress who played Liesel in the film.
Heh, I'm pretty wiped out at this point. All in all, lots of fun! Thanks to Steve and Sophia for putting it all together.
"Sounds" like fun, although I never watched The Sound Of Music. I watched a Brian Wilson concert at the Hollywood Bowl a couple years back, though.
