Within the context of his rave review of SOUTH PACIFIC, Brantley offers praise for Sher's direction by citing his work on another musical. The inference is that he is making reference to another Sher production that he admired.

Further, Brantley not only commends Sher's previous staging of THE LIGHT IN THE PIAZZA but refers to that work as "the return of full-blown lyricism to musicals," which -- to me, at any rate -- doesn't sound like a description of a show that he originally dismissed.

Of course, I could simply be leaping to my own conclusion based on my low opinion of Brantley. So be it. I stand by my assessment.
