 The Encore Theatre 
Opening this Weekend!
Timeless. Enchanting. Impactful. These three words clearly describe the classic musical South Pacific, coming to The Encore Musical Theatre stage this weekend until July 3rd. From the hauntingly beautiful first three notes of "Bali Hai" to the romance of "Some Enchanted Evening," it's no surprise that this Rodgers & Hammerstein favorite is one of the greatest Broadway musicals of all time.
