When Rodgers and Hammerstein’s “South Pacific” hit Broadway in 1949, it became an instant classic. Buyers went to great lengths to get tickets to the show and many scalpers charged $200 or more per ticket. The major New York publications gave the play rave reviews and it was soon dubbed “South Terrific.” The musical was nominated for 10 Tony
Awards in 1950 and it won every single one of them.
