Joined by the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra and special guest vocalists, Julie Andrews is your host for timeless Rodgers & Hammerstein classics, from The Sound of Music, The King & I, Cinderella, and more. After intermission she becomes the storyteller for the newly created musical adaptation of her best-selling children's book, Simeon's Gift, an enchanting tale of beauty, music and the power of giving.
I went to see this Friday night and it was phenomenal! Julie Andrews was stunning, and sang for a good majority of the night, even post vocal surgery. In her opening bit, she talked about how she can't quite hit those high notes anymore, but she can still sing the heck out of Ol Man River:)
Highlight of the evening? Julie herself inviting the audience to sing along at the end of Act 2 to Do-Re-Mi.
The (Hollywood) hills are alive...
