New Countries for Sound of Music Tour?
As it always goes with theatre, things change and nothing is for sure until it actually happens! We learned in a company meeting yesterday that their are some possible changes in our tour. The first is that our producers are negotiating with some other countries! It appears as though there is a possibility that our show might go to India, Russia, and/or Dubai in the United Arab Emirates, among other countries! Nothing is for sure at this point. We'll just have to wait and see! We learned that Taiwan and Thailand are now confirmed. We also learned that we may not be performing in Beijing. Apparently, we were supposed to be in a newly renovated fancy grand theatre. The Sound of Music was going to be the first show to debut in the newly renovated theatre. Well, our producers were just told that they (we suppose the Chinese government) have decided that they did not want an American show to be the debut production in the new theatre. We think it may be because of recent political events in that controversial Himalayan "province" and America's stand on the situation. Our producers said they may book the show in another Chinese city, or give us the week off to play in China, or the Chinese government people may change their minds! Keep checking back. This is getting very interesting!

Hi Zachary,
I understand you're on the cast of Sound of Music. Recently, I met two musicians from your troupe - Baasha (the trombone player) and Savitsha (the french horn player). I met them in Tioman Island (Malaysia). They took my phone number n email down. Would you be able to contact them and ask Baasha to email me when he can?
