South Pacific!

What a wonderful treat we had tonight!

On PBS, Live at Lincoln Center showed a performance of the current Broadway revival of South Pacific. Thanks, Anne, for the heads-up about this telecast. It’s an incredible performance of that fantastic show. It was ground-breaking when it first hit the stage, and this performance is no different.

South Pacific was the first live performance of a Broadway show that we’d ever seen. It was a road show back when we were living in Houston - probably around 1960. This staging was very similar to the way I remember the one we saw all those years ago. Just wonderful!!!

I hope you saw it, or can catch it on your local PBS affiliate.
