- On March 31, 1943, Rodgers & Hammerstein’s OKLAHOMA! opened on Broadway at the St. James Theatre and transformed the future of theater. The first of Rodgers & Hammerstein’s many collaborations marked the birth of a new genre, the musical play, which for the first time seamlessly integrated story, song and dance. The original Broadway production ran for 2,212 performances and was recognized with a Special Tony Award® in 1993 to honor the original Broadway production.

ABOUT RODGERS & HAMMERSTEIN
After long and highly distinguished careers with other collaborators, Richard Rodgers (Composer, 1902-1979) and Oscar Hammerstein II (Librettist/Lyricist, 1895-1960) joined forces in 1943 to create the most successful partnership in American musical theater. Prior to joining forces, Rodgers collaborated with lyricist Lorenz Hart on musical comedies that epitomized wit and sophistication (Pal Joey, On Your Toes, Babes In Arms and more), while Hammerstein brought new life to operetta and created the classic Show Boat with Jerome Kern. Oklahoma!, the first Rodgers & Hammerstein musical, introduced an integrated form that became known as “the musical play.” Their shows that followed included Carousel, South Pacific, The King and I, and The Sound of Music. Collectively, the Rodgers & Hammerstein musicals have earned Tony, Oscar, Grammy, Emmy, Pulitzer, and Olivier Awards. The Rodgers & Hammerstein Organization is a Concord Company, www.concord.com.

Did you know Oklahoma's state song is a song from Oklahoma! I know because I'm oklahoman and I had to sing it in school
Awesome!
Perryism: You aren’t a very good student because the state song of Oklahoma is the title song from OKLAHOMA! It isn’t just a song from the musical but the title song! But, you’re still Ok!
Happy 75 years to the one that started it all! (I sang Oh What A Beautiful Morning for a choir competition and got 39/40. I even dressed as Curly and curled my hair)
I find it amusing that when they showed scenes from the 1955 film version, they were using the voices from the 1943 original Broadway cast recording!
Oklahoma is one of my favorite musicals! Also, Shirley Jones also played Aunt Ellar? No way
Oklahoma the musical ran for 5 years & beauty and the beast ran for 13 years on broadway, April 18th 1994 beauty and the beast debut in New York City. I'm a fan of Walt Disney & western style musicals.

Brilliant beautiful film .😊

My soul is you
I have the 1979 disc, and scenes are available on You Tube. Laurence Guittard as Curley.
That’s amazing dude
Warren G. Wanker: There are better recordings. The soundtrack is fabulous even if Gloria Grahame as Ado Annie is easily bettered. For the best, check out Celeste Holm on the Decca Broadway Cast recording. It is s beautiful performance; she comes alive before your ears!!
