Lincoln Center Theater's 2008 revival of Rodgers & Hammerstein's SOUTH PACIFIC ran from April 3, 2008, through August 22, 2010, at the Vivian Beaumont Theater.  It marked the first Broadway revival of the Pulitzer Prize-winning musical since its debut in 1949. Based on James Michener's Pulitzer Prize-winning book Tales of the South Pacific, Rodgers & Hammerstein's SOUTH PACIFIC has music by Richard Rodgers, lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II and a book by Oscar Hammerstein II and Joshua Logan.  

Set on a tropical island during World War II, the musical tells the sweeping romantic story of two couples -- US Navy nurse Ensign Nellie Forbush & French plantation owner Emile de Becque and Navy Airman Lt. Joseph Cable & Liat, a local young woman -- and how their happiness is threatened by the realities of the war and by their own prejudices.

Benefit tickets range in price from $1,500 to $10,000 and include a post-show Cocktail Reception with the cast of SOUTH PACIFIC at the Metropolitan Opera House, where the menu will be curated by Angie Mar of Restaurant Le B.  Lincoln Center Theater is grateful to the SOUTH PACIFIC Benefit Sponsors: Bacardi USA, Champagne Lallier, Joseph and Joan Cullman Foundation for the Arts, The Blanche and Irving Laurie Foundation, and American Airlines. 40th Anniversary Season support is generously provided by Denise Sobel and Northern Trust.
