SING-ALONG-A-SOUND OF MUSIC
FRIDAY, 17 FEBRUARY 2006


On Friday, February 17th the village hall was alive to The Sound of Music. Fifty people came to the sing-along evening, most dressed as characters and songs from the film.
At the appropriate scenes Captain Von Trapp (aka Alan Young) orchestrated performances from

countless nuns
a Maria
a Countess
an Uncle Max
climbers (climbing every mountain)
snow-covered hills
a 17 going on 18
a drop of golden sun
a brown paper package tied up with string
a girl in a white dress with blue satin sashes

You get the picture. We all had some edelweiss to hold for that song, some curtain fabric (don't ask) and party poppers for The Kiss.
It was one of our more surreal village hall events, which we all hope will start a trend.
