Amherst PTA Presents "OKLAHOMA!"
Oklahoma!, the first musical written by famed composers Rodgers and Hammerstein is coming to the Amherst PTA! The perfect show to celebrate 60 years of wonderful community theatre with its uplifting story, beautiful scenery and popular music. The story is set in Oklahoma territory, with cowboy Curly McLain and his budding romance with farm girl Laurey Williams. Cowboy Will Parker and his fiance', the flirtacious Ado Annie liven the story with their trials and tribulations. Jud Fry, a farm hand soon gets in the way of Curly and Laurie for an unusual love triangle.
The original Broadway production of Oklahoma opened in 1943. It was a box-office smash and ran for an unprecedented 2,212 performances. In 1955, Oklahoma was adapted for the screen, winning 2 Academy Awards starring Shirley Jones as Laurey and Gordon MacRae as Curly. The 2002 Broadway revival experienced similar success, being nominated for seven Tony Awards. With hit songs like Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin', The Surrey with the Fringe on Top, I Can't Say No, People Will Say We're in Love, and Oklahoma, it is a show not to be missed.
Show dates are April 12th April 15th at the Souhegan High School Theatre, 412 Boston Post Rd., Amherst, NH.
The show is Directed by Roger Hurd, Advisor to the Director Alan D. Kaplan. Music Director is Kim Whitehead and Choreography by Vouli Anthimidou. Producers Jackie O'Dowd and Rita Piotrowski.
