I saw SOUTH PACIFIC for the first time last night, and I really loved it.
But I hope Kelli is ok. Her voice sounded pretty strained. Especially on "I'm Gonna Wash That Man Outa My Hair" and "A Wonderful Guy." She was out of breath during those two numbers, and a lot of the higher notes were strained. I was worried she wouldn't make it through both numbers. Otherwise, I thought her acting was fantastic. I know she was out Tuesday, but I thought that was because of a previous engagement, and not because she was sick.
I also thought the staging of the scene and song "Younger Than Springtime" was incredible. Absolutely beautiful. YTS was going great, but then on the last "am I with you" - Matthew's voice cracked on the IIIIiiiIII. I know people have said he has trouble with the high notes, but everyone kind of chuckled and looked at each other when his voice cracked.
Victor Hawks was on for Billis, and he was quite good! I thought the rest of the cast, especially Paulo and Loretta were amazing!
