Thank you ever som much for sharing this with us! The youngest girl, Gretl, is my aunt Evanna, and if you are reading this: I love you so much!

Why are a bunch of the posters calling the kid who played Friedrick a dork? He just seems like a normal guy to me. He's just standing there and then he introduces himself. Big deal. - If some of you mean that he moves around a bit; he was probably a bit nervous or excited - even the old pros got nervous at times. Give him a break. (If he's still alive that is LOL)

[brownies4you]

That was fun to watch.

@Porkularpie no they are the orignal broadway cast, not the real family.

[Porkularpie]

So these are actors, not the real Von Trapps?

[librarybob1958]

@592220 She was also Jon Voight's first wife. They met during SOM's Broadway run when he took over the role of Liesl's biyfriend, incipient Nazi Rolf Gruber, from Brian Davies, who created the role.

She also played Jimmy Stewart's daughter a few years later in the delightful family comedy "Mr. Hobbs Takes a Vacation."

Lauri Peters Played Barbara along side Cliff Richard in Summer Holiday. She is now 67

[Beatles5]

When, when????

[HattieLovesCattie]

This makes us feel old.I'm sure those kids are in their 50's and early 60's now.

[Aerodynamic14]

1;31 "sound of music' was heard

[RENEEisOnegative]

awesome

[spelvin214]

@592220 She's 67 now ... and, well, not hot. A picture of her in 2009 pops up on Google Images if you do a search ... it's a sad reminder of what time can do to all of us.

[DaveysMom]

@592220 Wasn't she Gidget (post-Sandra Dee)?

[DaveysMom]

@592220  Wasn't she Gidget at one point (post Sandra Dee)?

[592220]

Lauri Peters (Lisl I assume) IS FREAKING HOT!@!!!11 Of course she's probably damn near 70 now but hubba hubba!

What Hollywood never had was fabulous Broadway. I grew up (in Orange County) listening to Mary Martin with this lovely talented group of children and Theodore Bikel; and the movie was also precious. Thank you for posting these. These are marvelous.

[norgesiss]

This is the Broadway team, not the ones from the movie.

I never knew it was a musical before the movie. My mom made me watch the movie back in the 80's when I was a youngster. I enjoyed it but wasn't readily going to admit it then. 20 years later I sat down with my own family and watched it together. Both my kids loved it

[sjpc33]

how come the film credits her as Kym Karath?

[timwil09]

I saw these kids on Broadway just one week after they taped this show. It was a Saturday matinee and they were so talented and I think much better than their movie counterparts would later be. In fact the film cast children who resembled these original seven. And don't forget, these kids had to show up at the theatre six days a week and perform live on stage so they were true professionals. I was the age of the youngest one then. I wonder where they are now?

[lindacox13]

And she married Rolf from this production who was none other than Jon Voight

[txquis]

I think it is wonderful to see the original cast...sad that most of us don't know them as well as the movie cast....they are all charming, and poised, and look great.

[dorisdayno1]

yes i know lauri starred with maureen o'hara as i love maureen o'hara she is 1 of my actresses. i'd much rather have cliff richard than fabian. cliff is who starred with her in summer holiday. A very popular movie in britain.

[rbgtr]

Wow, she also played one of Jimmy Stewart's and Maureen O'Hara's daughters in the 1962 film Mr. Hobbs Takes a Vacation. If anyone remembers, she was infatuated with none other than "teen-idol" Fabian.

It's easy to forget that the Sound of Music had an existance prior to the Julie Andrews movie but here's the proof.
