The ‘Sound of Music’ cast delight train passengers with a surprise performance

Have you ever seen a gesture so wonderful it can not only make your day, but have you feeling that the world is suddenly a far more joyful, wonderful and unpredictable place?

The Australian cast of The Sound of Music, currently performing in Brisbane, recently surprised a train full of passengers with an impromptu public musical performance of Do-Re-Mi.

Amy Lehpamer, who plays the role of Maria, begins with her signature opening. The young actors playing her stepchildren, sitting anonymously throughout the train, rise one at a time to join in, causing passengers’ heads to swing back and forward in surprise.

Thanks to the quick thinking of a passenger, the entire performance was shared on Facebook, where it’s now making the days of thousands more viewers.

We heartily recommend watching this absolutely beautiful video below. It’s sure to put a skip in your step too.

First trip ever on the Brisbane trains and this happens! …. Just your average Thursday afternoon… A flashmob singing on the train. #thesoundofmusic #childhoodflashback #averagethursday Queensland Rail
