Musical Plot Summary Both the musical play and film are based on the portion of Maria von Trapp's book for the period of 1926 to 1938, with numerous alterations. In these depictions, Maria goes to Nonnberg Abbey after graduating high school to act on her desire to become a nun. She is sent to the von Trapp family and finds the Captain cold and detached, but the children are quite musically inclined. She wins them over and teaches them to sing.
As the children's singing abilities develop, so does the relationship between Maria and Georg. The family begins performing publicly; Maria and the Captain marry. Hitler invades Austria, and the Captain, a retired naval officer, is conscripted into the German navy. He quickly departs the country with his wife and family.
For the sake of the fictional story, there is a romantic subplot between the eldest daughter Liesl von Trapp and Rolf, a young messenger who eventually becomes a Nazi soldier, but there was no child named Liesl in the von Trapp family. Also, there is a love interest between the Captain and Elsa Schrader; the Captain is engaged to Elsa but breaks it off to marry Maria. According to Maria's autobiography, there was actually a relationship between Georg and a Princess Yvonne.
