SEPTEMBER 2010 TOURS

SOUTH PACIFIC Dancap Productions presents Roger's & Hammerstein's Musical
Wednesday, September 1 ... $149.00
We travel south to Toronto for our noon dinner at Tucker’s Marketplace. Then we travel to the stunning Four Seasons Centre for the Perfoming Atrs to see the wonderful NEW Dancap Production of South Pacific. It is a wonderful humorous mid-20th century musical, which will fill the Four Seasons Centre with its iconic, beautifully crafted songs and spectacular sets. Winner of seven Tony® Awards, this rich production will truly be a memorable experience on a stage built to showcase the human voice. This is a romantic love story taken from the pages of WW2 in the South Pacific. While waiting for action in the war, sailors and nurses put on a musical comedy show. The war gets closer and the saga of Nellie Forbush and Emile de Becque becomes serious drama. The cast includes Bloody Mary, the philosopher of the island and the mother of Liat who has captured the heart of Lt. Joseph Cable USMC. Wonderful songs, lots of laughs and a delightful musical story..
