South Pacific

RODGERS&HAMMERSTEIN'S SOUTH PACIFIC ROSSANO BRAZZI MITZI GAYNOR JOHN KERR-FRANCE NUYEN BUDDY ADLER JOSHUA LOGAN Tender romance, an immortal score and enchanted South Seas splendor are set against the dark backdrop of a world at war in this lush and passionate musical classic. At the heart of "South Pacific" is the love story of a naive young Navy nurse (Mitzi Gaynor) and an older French plantation owner (Rossano Brazzi) on a U.S.-occupied South Sea island. A young soldier (John Kerr) and a beautiful native girl (France Nuyen) also fall in love, while Ray Walston, as a scheming sailor, and Juanita Hall as the native queen of the black market, add wonderful supporting turns. The score is as breathtaking as the South Seas setting-"Some Enchanted Evening," "Bali Ha'i," "There is Nothin' Like a Dame," "Younger Than Springtime" and more. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, "South Pacific" ranks among the most celebrated of Rodgers and Hammerstein's acclaimed musical masterpieces.
