    The 1958 Summer of Musicals

    I); Welcome to the 1958 Summer of Musicals . Welcome to Broadway in the country. Last season was the first time Guy S. Little, Jr., presented his SUMMER OF MUSI- CALS in Sullivan. That season was the culmination of many years of planning and dreaming. When very young he spent three seasons in summer stock at Keene, New Hampshire, and at Gateway Musical Playhouse at Ocean City, New Jersey. There he learned theatre business from the ground up . from making negligees for the leading lady to building scenery and stages. He was so enthralled with the theatre that he majored in drama at the University of Miami. While there he played numerous roles at the Ring Theatre and appeared in six operas with the Miami Opera Guild in support to Metropolitan opera stars. At Miami he met his wife, Jerili, who was a voice and drama major also. There he also had experience in directing, designing and publicity work. After receiving his B.A. he did graduate work at The American Theatre Wing and at Columbia University in New York City to further prepare himself to be a theatre producer. For the past ten years he familiarized himself with all Broadway productions of the past and present. He col- lected props and costumes for the day when he would operate a summer theatre. All during these years of preparation his dream was to bring the theatre to the Midwest, to the country. Why should New England be the only place where one could see the best of Broadway in summer stock? Would not the Mid- west, would not his home town support a SUMMER OF MU- SICALS? And so SUMMER OF MUSICALS opened July 3, 1957, with ERIGADOON featuring a New York cast.

    THE MUSICO-DRAMATIC EVOLUTION OF RODGERS AND HAMMERSTEIN’S SOUTH PACIFIC DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By James A. Lovensheimer, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2003 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Arved Ashby, Adviser Professor Charles M. Atkinson ________________________ Adviser Professor Lois Rosow School of Music Graduate Program ABSTRACT Since its opening in 1949, Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Pulitzer Prize- winning musical South Pacific has been regarded as a masterpiece of the genre. Frequently revived, filmed for commercial release in 1958, and filmed again for television in 2000, it has reached audiences in the millions. It is based on selected stories from James A. Michener’s book, Tales of the South Pacific, also a Pulitzer Prize winner; the plots of these stories, and the musical, explore ethnic and cutural prejudice, a theme whose treatment underwent changes during the musical’s evolution. This study concerns the musico-dramatic evolution of South Pacific, a previously unexplored process revealing the collaborative interaction of two masters at the peak of their creative powers. It also demonstrates the authors’ gradual softening of the show’s social commentary. The structural changes, observable through sketches found in the papers of Rodgers and Hammerstein, show how the team developed their characterizations through musical styles, making changes that often indicate changes in characters’ psychological states; they also reveal changing approaches to the musicalization of the novel. Studying these changes provides intimate and, occasionally, unexpected insights into Rodgers and Hammerstein’s creative methods.
