South Pacific in Concert
Te Raukura ki Kāpiti, Coastlands Theatre, Paraparaumu, Kapiti Coast
SAT 24 AUG 6:00 P.M. - 8:00 P.M.
This is the essence of the musical South Pacific - the story, the singers and the orchestra. Come and hear such favourites as "Gonna Wash That Man", "Some Enchanted Evening" and "Bali Ha'i". The show is a 1949 Rodgers and Hammerstein musical, set on an island in the South Pacific during World War II. It was based on a series of short stories by James Michener. The musical was a massive hit, and the songs continue to be popular. Ours is an semi-staged performance. Mainly, that means no scenery and dancing. You still get narration, the songs, and a full orchestra. The singers are from Victoria University Music Department, and the music is played by Hutt Valley Orchestra under the baton of Mark Carter. -- For accessibility seating enquiries please email [email protected] or call 04)9740535 during office hours.
