Important Message: Music Center Closes Theatres 135 N. Grand Avenue Los Angeles, CA 90012 musiccenter.org Important Message: Music Center Closes Theatres Dear Music Center Patron, Supporter and Guest: Your safety, health and wellbeing are our number one priority. Amidst rising concerns regarding the COVID-19 global outbreak, Governor Newsom’s strong recommendation that all gatherings of 250 or more people across the entire state be cancelled, and the County of Los Angeles’ order that The Music Center close its theatres (Ahmanson Theatre, Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, Mark Taper Forum and Walt Disney Concert Hall), The Music Center closed its theatres, effective today, March 12, 2020. The Music Center’s resident companies (LA Phil, LA Opera, Center Theatre Group and the Los Angeles Master Chorale), along with TMC Arts/Glorya Kaufman Presents Dance at The Music Center, are also cancelling all presentations, public gatherings, education programs and tours through at least March 31, 2020. While we regret this unfortunate circumstance, The Music Center must put the safety and health of its patrons, artists, staff, visitors and supporters before anything else. If you have ticket(s) to a presentation/event March 12 - March 31, please direct all questions to the respective box offices: • For TMC Arts/Glorya Kaufman Presents Dance at The Music Center • For Center Theatre Group • For LA Opera • For LA Phil • For Los Angeles Master Chorale • For REDCAT As both an artistic and civic leader, it is our sincere commitment to ensure you can continue to engage with The Music Center’s cultural experience in ways that are both meaningful and safe. When the future becomes more certain and we can safely proceed with our normal operations and performances, we look forward to welcoming you back to The Music Center. Please follow our social channels – Facebook, Instagram and Twitter for continued updates. Thank you for your support and loyalty. We will continue to keep you updated through this dynamic situation, including any updates to performances and events occurring after March 31, 2020. .

  • THE SOUND of MUSIC Wednesday, October 7, 2015 Ahmanson Theatre, Los Angeles
    experienceL.A. THE SOUND OF MUSIC Wednesday, October 7, 2015 Ahmanson Theatre, Los Angeles THE SOUND OF MUSIC The Sound of Music is a stage and film musical based on The Story of the Trapp Family Singers, the memoir of Maria von Trapp. The story takes place in Austria at the brink of World War II. Maria, a plucky nun turned governess, is charged with caring for the seven children of a military captain. Maria’s delightful teaching of music to the children leads to their becoming a celebrated touring act, the innocence of which is shattered as the realities of Nazi rule become inescapable. Notably, many details of the von Trapp family story were changed to increase the dramatic impact of the musical version. Inspired by a pair of German films about the von Trapps from the mid-1950s, the stage version of The Sound of Music premiered on Broadway in 1959. The production won multiple Tony Awards, and the show has been revived many times since, including a renowned 1998 Broadway revival. The 1965 film version starring Julie Andrews won five Academy Awards and is still beloved today by viewers around the world. Written by Rodgers and Hammerstein, the songs of The Sound of Music—including “My Favorite Things,” “Do, Re, Mi,” “Edelweiss,” and the title song—have been celebrated for more than half a century. RODGERS AND HAMMERSTEIN Composer Richard Rodgers and librettist Oscar Hammerstein were one of the most prolific, successful songwriting teams in the history of musical theatre. The pair’s first collaboration, Oklahoma! (1943), marked the start of a new theatrical genre: the musical play, which combined elements of musical comedy, operetta, and drama.
