Emma Gingold is Summer Place Theatre’s resident music and vocal director, and we are delighted to have her fill that role for this summer’s production of Rodgers and Hammerstein's South Pacific.

Katie Karas is making her Summer Place Theatre debut and will be taking the stage for the first time since high school. Like many of the cast and production crew for South Pacific, Katie is an educator, working for Northwestern Medicine. She joins a talented ensemble cast, where she will be playing a Nurse.

Nick Greanias is proud and delighted to have the opportunity to portray Emile de Becque. Nick actually lived and served for three years in the South Pacific, as U.S. Consul General in New Zealand, also covering Samoa, the Cook Islands, and lots of other historic places in a huge oceanic territory that includes the islands of this show!

Summer Place Theatre is honored and excited to have Jorge Bermudez make his Naperville directorial debut amid a long and distinguished career directing, acting, and teaching theatre.
