Oklahoma! |
Spring 2005 |
We performed Rodgers and Hammerstein's Oklahoma! in 2005.
Oklahoma! is a musical play in two acts, based on Green Grow The Lilacs by Lynn Riggs. Set in the Indian Territory at the turn of the nineteenth century, it tells the story of ranch hand Curly who is infatuated with Laurey. Unfortunately, Curly and Laurey are both too proud to admit that they love each other, and Laurey accepts an invitation to the local dance from farm labourer Jud Fry, a dubious character, just to spite Curly.
Meanwhile, Will Parker has returned early from his trip to Kansas City where he had won enough money at a roping competition to marry his sweetheart Ado Annie. Unfortunately, Ado Annie just can't seem to say no to other men, especially the wily Persian peddler Ali Hakim.
In this tale of love on the wild frontier, will anyone live happily ever after?
