Fabulous Show!
WST put on a fantastic show in South Pacific! The scenery, the actors, the lighting (we especially noticed the lighting during this show for some reason) - fabulous! One of the best shows I've seen here (and I've been a subscriber for 15+ years). Perfect for a date-night, or family night out. You won't be disappointed! Great seeing some of our favorite people in there and last night the role of Emil was played by Jeff Coon (the understudy) - he played the part perfectly! Loved it! ... Read more

This was the first time I've seen South Pacific on stage and although I'd like to see it again to compare I thought it was very good. The singing was very good, and I have to say the children in the play were fantastic. It had it's good points and bad. I myself didn't care for the smoking, didn't think it was needed, nor the nudity but I think we all need to remember this is not the movie and for how it was presented it was very nicely done. I've seen the movie with Mitzi Gaynor and Rossano Bazzi 20 times and have to remember they simply just can't be duplicated. The people who performed last night gave it their all and I would recommend seeing this play, just remember they simply can't bring the South Pacific on stage and to compare it with the movie as I found myself doing only made me realize I was not giving credit where credit was due. ...
