South Pacific

Presented by Midwest Trust Center at Johnson County Community College at Midwest Trust Center at Johnson County Community College

Against the backdrop of World War II, “South Pacific” offers a lushly romantic score while challenging audiences with themes of racial intolerance and bigotry. The classic Rodgers and Hammerstein musical focuses on French plantation owner Emile de Becque and his love interest, Nellie Forbush, a naïve young nurse from Arkansas. The Rodgers and Hammerstein score includes numerous American songbook classics such as “Some Enchanted Evening,” “Younger than Springtime,” “Happy Talk,” “Bali H'ai” and “There is Nothing Like a Dame.” The original musical, starring Mary Martin and Ezio Pinza, won nine Tony Awards and the Pulitzer Prize for its Broadway debut in 1949.
