Oklahoma!: By Rogers and Hammerstein

About This Event

"Music by Richard Rogers Books and lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II Based on the play “Green Grow the Lilacs” by Lynn Riggs Original choreography by Agnes de Mille In a Western territory just after the turn of the 20th century, a high-spirited rivalry between local farmers and cowboys provides a colorful background for Curly, a charming cowboy, and Laurey, a feisty farm girl, to play out their love story. Their romantic journey, as bumpy as a surrey ride down a country road, contrasts with the comic exploits of brazen Ado Annie and hapless Will Parker in a musical adventure embracing hope, determination and the promise of a new land. Rodgers and Hammerstein’s exuberant classic features iconic songs including “Oklahoma!,” “Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin’,” “The Surrey with the Fringe on Top” and “People Will Say We’re in Love.” Students of the CU Boulder College of Music Musical Theatre program perform golden-age mainstays, contemporary Broadway hits, cabaret and developing new musicals. Great repertoire, beautiful scenery, amazing voices and outstanding value—these are the hallmarks of the CU Boulder College of Music Eklund Opera Program. Director Leigh Holman and Music Director Nicholas Carthy bring you the best of classical and contemporary opera."
