From DanCap Productions:

South Pacific - Running Time: Approximately 3 hours. One 15 min intermission.

(Note: children 5 and under will not be admitted)

Traveling by school bus, our first stop will be for lunch at Tucker's Marketplace Restaurant - a genuinely unique buffet experience.

Enjoy South Pacific playing at the Four Season Centre for the Performing Arts balcony seats. This musical is set on a tropical island during World War II, tells the sweeping romantic story of two couples - U.S. Navy nurse Nellie Forbush and French plantation owner Emile de Becque, and Navy Airman Joe Cable and a young local native girl Liat - and how their happiness is threatened by the realities of war and by their own prejudices. Considered by many to be the finest musical ever written.
