South Pacific - 2008 - Broadway History , Info & More

Vivian Beaumont Theatre (Broadway)
150 West 65th St. at Broadway New York, NY 10023

Although well known for its extraordinary score -- the songs include Some Enchanted Evening, Younger Than Springtime, Bali Ha'i, There Is Nothin' Like A Dame, and A Wonderful Guy -- South Pacific is also a deeply felt drama. Its portrayal of Americans stationed in an alien culture in wartime is as relevant today as when it first thrilled audiences in 1949.



Now in its first Broadway revival, South Pacific won seven 2008 Tonys and has been playing to sold-out houses since the first preview in March 2008. Three time Tony nominee Kelli O'Hara and acclaimed bass-baritone David Pittsinger lead the marvelous cast of 40 directed by Tony winner Bartlett Sher.

Matthew Morrison: Bali Hai Has Found Him
by Eddie Varley - May 20, 2008


From the very first moment Hairspray audiences caught Matthew Morrison crooning Marc Shaiman's joyful heart beat of a score and expertly swinging his hips while dancing to Jerry Mitchell's witty whiplash choreography, a Broadway performer of high caliber was born. Since exiting that production a number of years ago, he's built a career that's a testament to his intelligence and passion for the art of acting. His current role as Lt. Joe Cable in Lincoln Center's critically acclaimed revival of Rodger's & Hammerstein's South Pacific gives the young talent the chance to bring new life to a beloved classic.
