South Pacific is a musical production composed by Richard Rodgers, featuring lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II and a book by Hammerstein and Joshua Logan. Premiering on Broadway in 1949, the immediate hit ran for 1,925 performances. The production's plot is based on James A. Michener's Pulitzer Prize-winning 1947 book, Tales of the South Pacific, combining elements from several of its stories. Creators Rodgers and Hammerstein designed the musical to be both financially successful and to deliver a strong, progressive message addressing racism.
