The iconic Broadway musical, โOklahoma!โ is this seasonโs production by The Light Opera Group of the Negev (LOGON). Written by the legendary duo Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II, โOklahoma!โ is one of the most popular musicals of all time.
The story is set in the Oklahoma Territory in 1906, and centers on the romantic entanglements of Curly, a cowboy, and Laurey, a farm girl, amidst the backdrop of Oklahomaโs impending statehood.
โOklahoma!โ was the first musical to thoroughly integrate songs, story, and dance. The music is a key reason for the showโs lasting popularity. Unforgettable songs like โOh, What a Beautiful Morninโ,โ โThe Surrey with the Fringe on Top,โ โPeople Will Say Weโre in Loveโ and the titular โOklahoma!โ are standards in the American musical repertoire.
Music by Richard Rodgers, book and lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II. Based on the play Green Grow the Lilacs by Lynn Riggs. Original Choreography by Agnes de Mille.
The production is in English with Hebrew subtitles.
