Summary:
Rodgers and 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. 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!
