SARATOGA SPRINGS — Home Made Theater will present the American Classic musical, Oklahoma across two weekends starting on Friday, May 9 at the Pitney Meadows Community Farm in Saratoga Springs. First debuting in 1943, Oklahoma is considered to be the musical that pioneered the combination of music, lyrics, plot, and dancing to tell a cohesive story, launching a golden age in American theater.
The story of this musical surrounds the rivalry between local farmers and cowboys in a western territory just past the turn of the 20th century. This rivalry then creates the pathway for the love story between the charming cowboy Curly and the feisty farm girl Laurey, while also opening the audience up for the contrasting comedy of Ado Annie and Will Parker.
Performances will take place Friday May 9 and 16 at 7 p.m., Saturday May 10 and 17 at 2 and 7 p.m., and Sunday May 11 and 18 at 2 p.m. There will also be a performance on Thursday May 15 at 7 p.m.
General admission tickets for the performances will be $25. Students with ID can purchase tickets for $20.
Pitney Meadows Community Farm is located at 223 West Ave. in Saratoga Springs. Visit www.homemadetheater.org or call 518-587-4427 for tickets and other information.
