On December 5, a new adaptation of The Sound of Music (the Broadway version NOT the beloved film) will air LIVE on NBC at 8 PM.

Stephen Moyer (True Blood) and singer-actress Carrie Underwood will appear in the lead roles of the classic story of Georg and Maria von Trapp in the story set in pre-World War II Austria about an aspiring nun who leaves the Abby to become a governess for the widower Captain von Trapp’s seven children and finds herself falling in love with her employer and questioning her religious calling.

The cast also includes Audra McDonald (Private Practice), Christian Borle (Smash) and Laura Benanti (Royal Pains).

Here is a behind the scenes look at the LIVE performance of The Sound of Music.
