"Oklahoma!"

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. When it opened on Broadway in March 1943, Oklahoma! launched a new era in the American musical and began the most successful songwriting partnership in Broadway history. The show became the longest running of its time, running for a marathon 2,212 performances over 5 years. The national tour lasted an unprecedented 10 1/2 years, visiting every single state, and playing before a combined audience of more than 10 million people. In 1993, Oklahoma! celebrated its 50th Anniversary and became the first Broadway musical honored with a commemorative U.S. postage stamp.

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 Curly, 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, love's 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!
