Sing-A-Long-ASound Of Music is returning to the State Theatre in 2016.

The original film will be screened in its entirety, including subtitles, so all the Frauleins and Friedrichs and Louisas and Liesels in the crowd can sing along.

Last time it happened, we sent a punk rock musician along for the experience, and it’s safe to say he had a night to remember.

The host for the evening will be Katrina Retallick, one of Australia’s most accoladed theatre, film and television personalities, who will lead the audience through a pre-screening vocal warm-up up and close the night with a costume parade and competition.

Previous years have seen the State Theatre filled with anything from deers to girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes and curtain-clad Von Trapps to brown paper packages tied up with string, so weird and wacky is encouraged.

Sing-A-Long-ASound Of Musicwill take place on Saturday February 27. Tickets and more info are available here.
