O’Hara earned a degree in opera from Oklahoma City University. After winning the State Metropolitan Opera Competition in 1998, she moved to New York City and enrolled in the Lee Strasberg Institute for acting.

In 2003 Kelli committed to a production of The Light in the Piazza at Seattle’s Intiman Theatre. The show landed on Broadway in 2005 and earned O’Hara her first Tony and Drama Desk Award nominations.
She moved from one critical and commercial success to another when she joined Harry Connick on Broadway in the 2006 Tony award-winning production of The Pajama Game, for which she received Tony, Drama Desk, and Outer Critics Award nominations. She starred in the Tony Award-winning revival of South Pacific at Lincoln Center, enrapturing audiences and critics alike with her soulful and complex interpretation of Nellie Forbush, and garnering Tony, Drama Desk, and Outer Critics Award nominations. She later teamed up with Matthew Broderick in Broadway’s musical comedy Nice Work if You Can Get it, earning Tony, Drama Desk, Drama League and Outer Critics Circle nominations, as well as the Fred Astaire Nomination.
In 2014, her performance as Francesca in the musical adaptation of The Bridges of Madison County earned her Tony, Drama Desk, Drama League, and Outer Critics Circle nominations.

Phenomenal! They must have been entranced trying to listen because she's amazing and so animated whole singing this song
Tough room. Sooners c'mon wake up. Wow. This song brings the house down wherever she performs it. :-)
They applaud her at the end, but yeah, they certainly sound like they’re asleep.
Superb! Tough audience .... xx
I'll bet 90% of it went over their heads.
@@Unobtanium100 She gave a great performance in spite of the dead audience!
They give her a standing ovation but hey, laugh a little at the superb punchlines.
She is absolutely a superb singer. Amazing, amazing, amazing! ❤️❤️❤️
BRAVA!!!!
She's amazing! Is the audience in a coma?
They fete her at the end, but yeah, laugh a little, Oklahomans. For hell’s sake, your state was the title of the new story-based musical!
This is SO good!
Love it. 😍
Did someone chloroform this audience, or is the mic unidirectional?
Bahaa! That's exactly what I was thinking!
The band is no better.
Are there no female instrumentalists in OK?
It's Oklahoma. Said 'nuf?
Not a smile, not a laugh. Must be all stuffed shirts on Valium. Watch the other video of this song. The audience really get into it and give Kelli a deserved standing ovation at the end. And yes the band here is truly awful. Again the other video’s musical accompaniment is stunning although I think the lady oboist (?) front right must be from OK too.....not a hint of a smile.
Love this. ❤❤❤
Too bad the audience was so boring and subdued. This was fantastic!
🥰❤
Dead audience...💀
I think the women get it 😂
I love her but it bothers me that the lyrics say it’s a C but she’s actually singing an A...
It's called a joke and I think it makes it even funnier 😂
It was sarcasm.
the audience is so dead
What a flat crowd. Band is no better. Can they not hear?
