On March 31 1943, the curtains opened at Broadway's St. James Theatre, a single cowboy named Curly stepped onto the stage, burst into song, and a new type of musical was born. Rodgers & Hammerstein’s musical adaptation of Lynn Rigg’s 1931 play, Green Grow The Lilacs, wasn’t the first “serious” musical, to stand out against the comedies that dominated the 1920s and ‘30s, but it was--and remains today-- one of the best…a stunning work on all fronts.
Based on a magnificent story that is both touching and heart-rending, Oklahoma! is filled with classic songs. Look for "Oh, What A Beautiful Morning", "Kansas City", "Many A New Day", "The Surrey With The Fringe On Top", "I'm Just A Girl Who Cain't Say No", "People Will Say We're In Love", and more!
Join us for Dinners At Six after evening performances and before matinees!
