A full cast list of NBC’s live presentation of The Sound of Music has been released, and Broadway fans will have a field day spotting veteran performers as nuns, Nazis and socialites on December 5. The abbey might as well be in the middle of Times Square with Christiane Noll, Jessica Molaskey, Elena Shaddow, Ashley Brown, Georgia Stitt, Linda Mugleston, Paula Leggett Chase, Cameron Adams, Autumn Hurlbert and Nikki Renee Daniels under those wimples. Meanwhile, Kristine Nielsen and Michael Park will play Frau Schmidt and Baron Elberfeld (whoever they may be), and many of the nuns will do double duty as dancers. DVR this thing, because you will definitely want to look at it more than once! The complete cast is as follows:
