In respect and tribute to the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, a minute's silence was held ahead of our performance last night. We will begin each remaining performance of The Sound of Music in this way.

Well, @SouthernLightEd made one of my favourite scores soar this evening. Thoroughly enjoyed their production of #TheSoundOfMusic at @captheatres, dynamically and inventively directed by @thequintiny. Great to see Elspeth on stage too.
