Maria Arrigotti happily is back with the Western Nevada Musical Theater Company in the Rodgers and Hammerstein’s “The Sound of Music.”

She starred in many productions with the company and her professionalism is evident on the stage as she leads the troupe of seven von Trapp children through the musical. The shows continues tonight and next week.

A couple of fine shows on tap this weekend for Carson City folk. One is a children's production, Aladdin, Jr." at the Children's Museum of Northern Nevada. The other is the venerable "Sound of Music," staged by the Western Nevada Musical Theater Company, affiliated with our local college.

Western Nevada Musical Theater Company last weekend staged a "flash mob" publicity stunt at Reno-Tahoe Airport to promote their production of "The Sound of Music." Have a look, it's great:
