What do the Grumman Plant in Bethpage, which produced Apollo Lunar Modules, have to do with the Sound of Music? Unknown to me, the Grumman plant has been turned-into a huge production facility. Large enough to allow NBC to perform this classic Broadway Show live next month. Who'd have seen the connection?
I would love to see the 1st moon walk scored to "The Hills are Alive...." :)
Wow so thats where they are doing that? Pretty cool but I'm sure the show is going to be terrible!! UGH!! Enough with trying to recreate classics!!Quote:

And not many people remember the original Broadway show and us oldies will be comparing it to the iconic movie!! I guess NBC is counting on the younger crowd not identifying with the original thus having the Underwood/Moyer star power!!
NBC had an hour long special "The Making of the Sound of Music Live!" on the other night, and it was pretty cool see how they transformed Grumman Studios HUGE Stage 3 into all the elaborate sets needed for their LIVE "SOM" TV production that will air next week.:wink:
