Rodgers & Hammerstein's SOUTH PACIFIC Will Be Performed at Lighthouse Repertory Theatre
The Rodgers & Hammerstein classic runs at Calderone Theatre and Twin Oaks Theatre Building
Lighthouse Repertory Theatre Company is thrilled to announce its upcoming production of Rodgers & Hammerstein's beloved classic, South Pacific - one of the most celebrated musicals in American theatre history. With a sweeping score, unforgettable characters, and a story that resonates as powerfully today as it did upon its 1949 Broadway debut, this production promises to be a landmark event for the Long Island theatrical community.
Set on a South Pacific island during World War II, South Pacific weaves together two stirring love stories - each challenged by the prejudices of its time. Ensign Nellie Forbush, an idealistic Navy nurse from Arkansas, falls for the charming French plantation owner Emile de Becque, while Lt. Joe Cable grapples with his feelings for the young Island woman Liat. The musical features timeless songs including "Some Enchanted Evening," "Younger Than Springtime," "Bali Ha'i," and "There Is Nothin' Like a Dame."
"We are incredibly proud to bring this iconic work to life with such a talented and dedicated company of performers," said Tony Chiofalo, the artistic director of Lighthouse Repertory Theatre. "South Pacific is not just a love story - it is a profound examination of courage, compassion, and the human capacity to change. We believe this production will move and inspire audiences of all ages."
The show opens and runs for two weekends: June 5th-14th at the newly renovated Calderone Theatre at Celebrate St James in Saint James, NY and one weekend: June 19-21st in Freeport, NY at the Twin Oaks Theatre Building.
The cast includes: Soloman Buchman and Jon Hordos · Emile de Becque, Jacklyn Lisi and Christina Russo · Ensign Nellie Forbush and features: Stephen Anastasia, Jesse Pimpinella, Ray Gobes Jr., Michael Goodwin, Kirby Mason, Ellen Dumloa, Brenda Soto, Pina Than, Michael Sherwood, Steve Horowitz, Emma Chen, Ava Lugo, Mackenzie Rosado, Serena Scaccia, Vinny Nigro, Sawyer Goldfeder, Liam Marsigliano, Gerald Quigley, Liam Tuohy, Jess Abbotts, Corinne Murphy, Kami Crary, Francine Gangone, Anna Burnett, Courtney Keslowitz and Kelly Gallagher.
