I've noticed no one on here has shared pictures of their productions...maybe I am simply missing the threads...but here are some from mine-mind you it was a fairly low budget production (we had a field day about some of the backdrops lol) and I played Sister Berthe. (also keep in mind that the children all had an average age of.....14...except for Gretl who was 9 and Liesll actually was 16 going on 17 lol)

Singing at the Festival

aww! It looks good! I've always wanted to be in SOM and for some reason I've always wanted to be Gretl, I think I'm a little too old though.
haha
I love the Von Trapp kids outfits! So cute!

Well, not much action in this topic but I thought I'd add anyhow. Here's the link to my SoM gallery - from my April 2006 production. I played Liesl and it was fabulously awesome. Yes indeedy.

ANYHOO. The link:

I love all the costumes (especially the trio) and your sets are fine, MsDivaKate. Oh, and don't worry about the kids. When I did SoM, the median age for the WHOLE cast was 14.

Kitness, I love all your sets--especially the gazebo. Periaktoi seem to be popular to use in SoM.

Thank you! My wee brother built the sets, so yay, glad you like them

How come there are no pics of you? Or the staging of "How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria?"

There's nothing like a nun in a habit!

Now to be fair:

jazzygirl you guys look awesome (which one are you?). Were you professional? Semi-professional? Because your sets and costumes are fabulous.

I don't have any of the actual production, because it was professional, so I think that would be illegal. But I've got a bundle of pics from backstage that shows the costumes. I wish I could show you the set, it was flippin' unbelievable!! Anyways, I was Kurt's understudy, so they added me as a street kid in Confidence and an altar boy in the wedding. There was another girl understudying and she was those two parts with me. She understudied Marta & Brigitta. The other understudies for the children looked old enough to be in the party, etc.
Oh, and we alternated Gretl's between performances, because it would be hard to get a six-year old to do eight shows a week, fifty performances in one month and two weeks.
ANYWAYS....the pictures:

Here is a lot of people: Back row (L to R) - Capt. von Trapp, Max, Soldier, Maria, Fredriech (sp?). Front row (L to R) - Louisa, Kurt (I dunno what the hell he's doing!) Marta, Brigitta, Gretl, Leisl's bottom half, Altar Boy (me)

These are some of the von Trapp children in the clothes that Maria made them.
Back row (L to R): Fredriech, Maria, Louisa. Front row (L to R): Marta, Kurt, Gretl

The von Trapp children in their wedding outfits. Back row (L to R): Hairdresser, Louisa, Leisl, Fredriech. Middle Row (L to R): Brigitta, Kurt, Marta. Front row: Gretl (the cuter one )

The nuns. Mother Abbess is in the back row in the Center (the one without a hat). Leisl is also in there as a nun, she is in the back row, on the far right-hand side. The one next to Leisl also played Frau Schmidt. The one in the back row, on the far left-hand side (with the glasses) also played the Baroness.

The Mother Abbess.

The Baroness & Frau Schmidt (Frau also played Berthe). It's a weird combination of characters, but oh well.

Sorry there's none of the set and the live-action, but there's a glimpse at my production, anyways. I hope you liked them!

Thanks! The sets all moved pretty easily, too...though it doesn't look like it! LOL! The huge "stone" arches were on wheels...it made transitions SUPER smooth!

And our costumer was such a sweetie! Her and I would play minigolf on our days off! LOL! She would be happy to hear that you liked the costumes, as our FABULOUS director clashed with her and wanted them to be even BETTER!

I'm not sure what your definition of professional is, but it was a regional summerstock production that had some Equity contracts. (I'm non-Eq, BTW)...I was Maria.

You look like Kate Todd.

^I'll take that as a compliment! Thank you!

She's pretty, but I'm sure she wears a size 2...and I don't! LOL!

Your pics are great, too, BTW! It looks like you had a lot of fun!

You should most definitely take that as a compliment!!

Our production rocked. We were all so tight by the end of it. I bawled at the end of the last show. In fact, I bawled onstage, during the curtain call. Yup, that's me. Sappy.
