Award-winning SOS Presents returns in July with a spellbinding Amateur production of Rodgers & Hammerstein’s legendary Oklahoma! – the show that redefined musical theatre.

Blending music, dialogue and dance into a seamless storytelling experience, Oklahoma! set the standard for every musical that has followed, while remaining just as popular as when it first opened on Broadway in 1943.

Set against the wide-open skies of the American frontier, this joyful show celebrates the pioneering spirit of a hardworking community carving out a life on the land. At its heart lies the rivalry between confident cowboy Curly and brooding farmhand Jud as they compete for the attentions of the headstrong Laurey.

Featuring timeless classics such as The Surrey with the Fringe on Top and People Will Say We’re in Love, Oklahoma! bursts with humour, passion, adventure and the hopeful promise in each brand-new morning.

Don’t miss this beloved American musical at Mayflower Studios this summer!

The imagery used in promotions of this production of Oklahoma! is from an original pastel painting titled ‘Take Me Home in a Surrey’ created for the event by Southampton based artist Daisy Wilkins @Dazoo Art. The original painting is being offered as a prize in a free draw. For a chance to win the painting, see Oklahoma! Competition – SOS Presents.

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. This Amateur production of Oklahoma! is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of The Rodgers & Hammerstein Organization. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk.
