This is an extraordinary cast for this landmark musical."

South Pacific features a score by Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II and a book by Hammerstein and Joshua Logan. "The masterful and lyrical love story between Army nurse Nellie Forbush and the mysterious French planter, Emile de Becque" won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama.
