Not Held at Japan Society – Roundabout Theatre Company Presents Pacific Overtures

Following this season’s triumphant production of Assassins, Roundabout presents another landmark musical by Stephen Sondheim and John Weidman. Tony Award® winner B.D. Wong (M. Butterfly) stars in this brilliant tale of culture clash as sparked by America’s 1853 mission to Westernize Japan. A show of sheer theatrical genius, Pacific Overtures features Sondheim’s most daring music-an adventurous blend of Broadway razzle-dazzle and pure Eastern beauty. Visionary Japanese director Amon Miyamoto brings a fresh perspective to this American musical masterpiece.

Don’t miss the first Broadway revival of this groundbreaking musical.

November 12, 2004 – January 30, 2005
