Michener’s Pulitzer Prize winning novel, Tales of the South Pacific, this show features some of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s best musical numbers like “Wash That Man Right Out of My Hair,” “Younger Than Springtime,” and “There Ain’t Nothin’ Like a Dame.” Spend “Some Enchanted Evening” when you see South Pacific at the Playhouse starting June 30th through July 8th.
