South Pacific New Broadway Cast Recording 2008
Description
The landmark musical’s first-ever Broadway revival! The curtain rang down on
Rodgers & Hammerstein’s South Pacific in 1954 after five years of
extraordinary acclaim and countless awards including nine Tonys and a
Pulitzer. Based on James Michener’s Pulitzer Prize winning book Tales of the
South Pacific, the musical is set on a tropical island during World War II and
tells the sweeping romantic story of two couples – U.S. Navy nurse Nellie
Forbush and French plantation owner Emile de Becque and Marine Joe Cable and a
young local native girl Liat – and how their happiness is threatened by the
realities of the war and by their own prejudices. Considered by many the
finest musical ever written, the score’s songs include such musical theater
classics as “Some Enchanted Evening,” “Younger Than Springtime,” “Bali Ha’i,”
“There is Nothin’ Like a Dame” and “A Wonderful Guy.”
