Monterey High School in collaboration with MPC Theatre presents Oklahoma at the Outdoor Forest Theater
Monterey Hight in collaboration with MPC Theatre presents Oklahoma!
April 24 - May 4, 2025
Founders Theatre, Golden Bough Playhouse, Carmel-by-the-Sea
Rodgers & Hammerstein’s first collaboration remains, in many ways, their most innovative, setting the standards and rules of modern musical theatre.
In a Western territory just after the turn of the 20th century, a high-spirited rivalry between local farmers and cowboys provides a colorful background for Curly, a charming cowboy, and Laurey, a feisty farm girl, to play out their love story. Their romantic journey, as bumpy as a surrey ride down a country road, contrasts with the comic exploits of brazen Ado Annie and hapless Will Parker in a musical adventure embracing hope, determination and the promise of a new land.
Content Warning:
This production contains staged depictions of violence and the use of firearms. Viewer discretion is advised.
