SOUTH PACIFIC at Snoqualmie Falls Theatre

What is it with the Northwest and South Pacific all of a sudden?

First Bartlett Sher, Artistic Director of the Intiman goes and wins a Tony for directing SOUTH PACIFIC at Lincoln Centre, and then I hear about my friend Jenny McMurray starring as Nellie in SOUTH PACIFIC at the Snoqualmie Falls Forest Theatre!

I met Jenny back when we both lived in Toronto when she appeared in the very first reading of PLANE CRAZY at the Poor George Theatre. Now as fate would have it, we are both living in Seattle! Small world, isn't it? And the director of that first workshop, Sam Berger, will soon be moving to Vancouver! But I digress…

The Snoqualmie Falls Theatre is an outdoor theatre that sounds like an absolute blast, complete with BBQ dinner! I remember I went to see PETER PAN at the Forest Theatre in Carmel and had a really magical evening, so I imagine it will some enchanted evening when I see SOUTH PACIFIC outdoors!
