⭐ RUMOUR – RODGERS & HAMMERSTEIN’S SOUTH PACIFIC – CHICHESTER FESTIVAL THEATRE – LONDON TRANSFER PLANNED ⭐
The Chichester Festival Theatre production of South Pacific will reportedly transfer to London next year, it has been rumoured.
The critically acclaimed revival will reportedly be heading to London for Summer 2022.
The recent Chichester Festival Theatre production starred Gina Beck (Nellie Forbush), Julian Ovenden (Emile de Becque), Joanna Ampil (Bloody Mary), Keir Charles (Luther Billis) and Rob Houchen (Joe Cable). It is not known yet if they will return for the rumoured transfer.
This much-loved, Tony and Pulitzer Prize-winning musical opened in 1949 to huge success, becoming one of Broadway’s longest running hit shows. It boasts one of Rodgers & Hammerstein’s most memorable scores, featuring songs such as Some Enchanted Evening, I’m Gonna Wash That Man Right Outa My Hair and Bali Ha’i.
South Pacific is directed by Chichester Festival Theatre Artistic Director Daniel Evans whose previous Chichester productions include This Is My Family, Quiz and Fiddler on the Roof.
I really hope this is true, was gutted to have missed this one. Fingers crossed! ! !
