The Yard Presents, Doug Elkins and Friends' "Fräulein Maria" at the Martha's Vineyard Performing Arts Center

Conceived/ Choreographed by Doug Elkins, Directed by Barbara Karger & Michael Preston
Music by Richard Rodgers Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II*

FRAULEIN MARIA celebrates Rodgers & Hammerstein's timeless songs from THE SOUND OF MUSIC as re-imagined by acclaimed choreographer Doug Elkins. Set to the 1965 movie soundtrack, Elkins' affectionate humor shines through his idiomatic tips of the hat to such dance legends as Martha Graham, Paul Taylor and Merce Cunningham. He merges modern and popular dance forms including hip hop and "vogueing," reinventing this beloved classic into an edgy and fun cabaret romp.

Recommended for everyone, including children 5 and older.

Presented in cooperation with Rodgers & Hammerstein: An Imagem Company.  www.rnh.com.
