Description
A cowboy and a farm girl fall in love in the first collaboration between legendary Broadway musical duo Rodgers and Hammerstein. Based on Lynn Riggs' 1931 play, Green Grow the Lilacs, Oklahoma! is a parable about the toxic power of gossip and the virtue of tolerance. Set in the Oklahoma prairie town of Claremore, the plot follows the secret romance of Curly McLain and Laurey Williams and is responsible for many well-known numbers, including "Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin'" and the production's title track, "Oklahoma!" The musical is often cited as one of the most important works of American theater.
