by BWW News Desk - August 07, 2015
Fountain Hills Theater is proud to announce the opening of the classic war-time musical South Pacific. From the haunting "Bali Hai" to the exquisite "Some Enchanted Evening," this Rodgers & Hammerstein classic contains some of the most glorious music ever written. The winner of 10 Tony Awards and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, South Pacific tells the sweeping romantic story of two couples on a remote island in the Pacific - a U.S. Navy nurse and an expatriate French plantation owner, and a Marine Corps lieutenant and a young local girl - and how their happiness is threatened by the realities of war and their own prejudices. Helmed by FHT's Artistic Director Peter J. Hill, and incorporating newsreel footage from WWII, South Pacific balances intimate, personal stories with the sweeping grandeur of wartime drama.
