Just a little update:
After only a few performances, there have already been changes made to the Lincoln Center production of South Pacific - resulting in a more svelte production (by almost 10 minutes).
Small edits - nothing major.
The pacing is getting sharper and the characterizations are much crisper.
Granted, it's an improvement on something that was pretty damn near perfect to begin with, but it's still worth noting.

Thanks for the update.
What role do you play in the show, the creative team, or the production staff?

Not in the show - my partner's in it and through a series of events (tickets falling into my lap), I've seen the thing 3 times already. lol.
I'm taking a break from it now.
Figured I'd update folks here.

"The gods who nurse this universe think little of mortals' cares. They sit in crowds on exclusive clouds and laugh at our love affairs. I might have had a real romance if they'd given me a chance. I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter
