Rodgers and Hammerstein refers to the duo of composer Richard Rodgers (1902–1979) and lyricist-dramatist Oscar Hammerstein II (1895–1960), who together were an influential, innovative and successful American musical theatre writing team.

Leonowens, who had been tutor to the children of King Mongkut of Siam in the 19th century, and it had already been adapted into a nonmusical film in 1946.

Rodgers and Hammerstein drew pictures, made lists. They understood and rewrote the longings of the heart. I have sung it live, on stage, on recordings, and with the man I felt the same way about. Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II met each other long before their partnership, and each began to sew the seeds of their Broadway revolution with other partners. Hammerstein was literally born into the theatre. Rodgers was a musical prodigy from a cold, emotionally distant and abusive home. Hammerstein attempted to correct things by asking Logan to direct "The King And . Wounded by his "South Pacific" experience, Logan refused.
