Hutt Valley Orchestra performs a semi-staged convert of South Pacific Musical.

Te Raukura ki Kāpiti, Coastlands Theatre
Saturday 24 August 2024 6:00pm – 8:00pm

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 kiaora@teraukura.nz or call (04)9740535 during office hours.

Tickets at the door or Eventfinda: www.eventfinda.co.nz...
