Carroll High School Freedom Players perform Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Oklahoma on March 22, 23 and 24, 2019. Oklahoma is the first musical written by the team of composer Richard Rodgers and librettist Oscar Hammerstein. Set in farm country outside the town of Claremore, Oklahoma Territory in 1906, it is the story of farmgirl Laurey Williams and her courtship by two rival suitors, cowboy Curly McLain and the sinister farmhand Jud Fry. A secondary romance concerns cowboy Will Parker and his flirtatious fiancee, Ado Annie.
The large cast will fire up the stage with over a dozen familiar songs, including "Oh What a Beautiful Morning", "People Will Say We’re in Love", "The Farmer and the Cowman" and "Oklahoma."
