Rodgers &
Hammerstein's first collaboration remains,
in many ways, their most innovative,
having set the standards and established
the rules of musical theatre still being
followed today.
Set in a
Western Indian Territory just after
the turn of the century, the high-spirited
rivalry between the local farmers and
cowboys provides the colorful background
against which Curley, a handsome cowboy,
and Laurey, a winsome farm girl, play
out their love story. Although the road
to true love never runs smooth, with
these two headstrong romantics holding
the reins, loves journey is as bumpy
as a surrey ride down a country road.
That they will succeed in making a new
life together we have no doubt, and
that this new life will begin in a brand-new
state provides the ultimate climax to
the triumphant OKLAHOMA!
Great for the
Entire Family!
