16 September 2025 – Let’s start at the very beginning… It’s been 60 years, but the songs will live on forever, passed down from generation to generation. If you still sing or hum “Edelweiss”, “My Favourite Things”, “Climb Ev’ry Mountain” and “Do-Re-Mi”, you are going to love the nostalgic return to the big screen of one of cinema’s most iconic musicals.

Exclusive to Ster-Kinekor cinemas countrywide, The Sound of Music will be screened for two days only, on 20 and 23 September, so book your tickets now. Whether you’re sixteen going on seventeen or simply young at heart, there is no better time to experience the breathtaking new theatrical presentation of Rodgers & Hammerstein's™ iconic musical film, The Sound of Music. Meticulously restored and remastered in 4K for its 60th anniversary, the beloved classic is more brilliant than ever with pristine picture and sound.

In this true-life story, Julie Andrews lights up the screen as Maria, a spirited young woman who leaves the convent and becomes a governess to the seven unruly children of Captain von Trapp (Christopher Plummer). Her warmth, charm and songs soon win the hearts of the children and their father. But when the threat of war rises, Maria is forced to attempt a daring escape with her new family.

Directed by Robert Wise, the film also stars Richard Haydn, Peggy Wood, Evadne Baker, and Portia Nelson. It has a running time of 2 hours and 58 minutes, including a pre-show and a PG classification.

Rediscover this spectacular five-time Academy Award®-winning classic and one of the most successful movie musicals of all time. The Sound of Music features timeless Rodgers & Hammerstein songs, including “Edelweiss”, “My Favourite Things”, “Climb Ev’ry Mountain”, “Do-Re-Mi”, and, of course, the enduring title track that has echoed through generations.
