Pacific Overtures
Pacific Overtures was an ambitious 1976 musical by Stephen Sondheim, with a libretto by John Weidman, and additional material by Hugh Wheeler, set in 1853 Japan. Four Western ships arrive ominously, opening the feudal country to foreign trade and visitors for the first time in 250 years.
