It looks like Connie Fisher's vocal chords aren't so 'alive with the sound of music' lately. The poor lass has been forced to take to two weeks off from The Sound of Music due to a vocal injury.
According to the statement:
"Through a desire not to let the public down Connie Fisher sang through a heavy cold which has caused a vocal injury. The vocal chords are a muscle like any other and, as in the sporting world, when injured they require complete rest to recover. On her doctor’s advice Connie has to take two weeks off from the show (starting on Monday 5 March) in order to allow the injury time to repair. The Sound of Music is a fantastic production with an enormously talented cast and we are very lucky in that, in Connie’s absence, the role of Maria will be covered by Sophie Bould , who has been receiving standing ovations for her portrayal of Maria."
Connie will also be on holiday for two weeks from 7 May, returning to the show on Monday 21 May 2007.
And while we're on the topic, Lesley Garrett will play the role of (Mother Abbess) until Saturday 28 April 2007 (except Thursday Evenings) so get down there and see 'the voice'.
