Oklahoma!

The first product of the legendary Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammestein’s musical partnership, Oklahoma! is a landmark production that set many of the standards and rules of modern musical theatre.

It tells the romantic journey of charming cowboy Curly and feisty farm girl Laurey in a territory in the American West just after the turn of the 20th century. Their bumpy love story is a complete contrast to the comic exploits of brazen Ado Annie and her hapless suitor Will Parker.

Curley and Laurey’s relationship is also complicated by farmhand Jud Fry, who is also attracted to Laurey.

The story is played out against the high-spirited rivalry between local farmers and cowboys in a musical adventure that embraces hope, determination and the promise of a land.

Oklahoma! features well known Rodgers and Hammerstein favourites such as Oh, What a Beautiful Morning, Surrey with the Fringe on Top, I Cain’t Say No, People Will Say We’re in Love and Oklahoma! itself.
