Hello, gorgeous!

Did you have a good weekend? Either way, we’d like to get your week off to a good start with an awesome giveaway!

We’ve got 4 tickets to see The Salzburg Marionette Theatre’s The Sound of Music at Walton Arts Center. There’s only one show and it’s on Tuesday, March 8th.

When Rodgers + Hammerstein’s beloved Broadway musical The Sound of Music was adapted to the silver screen in 1965, Twentieth Century-Fox made the decision to use marionettes in “The Lonely Goatherd” sequence, resulting in one of the most charming musical numbers ever captured on film.

Now, the magic of marionette puppetry animates the entire story, as the world famous Salzburg Marionette Theatre revitalizes the tale of the Von Trapp Family Singers. You can expect all the highlights of the beloved story, including the treasured songs “Do-Re-Mi,” “The Sound of Music,” “My Favorite Things” and “Edelweiss.

Look at all the beautiful puppets:
