"The Sound Of Music" was still a hit during its initial run; it tied with "Fiorello!" for the Tony that year (although "Gypsy" was famously overlooked). Lindsay and Crouse were very well-known names -- they had written among other things "Life With Father" which still holds the record for the longest-running straight play on Broadway.
