“If you don’t have a dream, how you gonna have a dream come true?” Winner of 10 Tony Awards, including Best Book and Best Score, South Pacific is a sweeping Rodgers and Hammerstein classic set on a tropical island during World War II. Amid ocean breezes and the rumble of B-29 bombers, Ensign Nellie Forbush and Lt. Joseph Cable find themselves torn between love, duty, and the challenges of a divided world. This beloved musical tackles prejudice while celebrating hope, cultural understanding, and the power of love. With unforgettable songs like “Some Enchanted Evening,” “I’m Gonna Wash That Man Right Outa My Hair,” and “Bali Ha’i,” South Pacific continues to move audiences with its timeless story of romance and resilience. Participants will enjoy lunch on their own at a local restaurant prior to the show.
