Producers say the classic show has been re-orchestrated and reimagined for the 21st century, and it enjoyed a sold out run at London’s Young Vic Theatre last year. The new production has also found success in New York and on a US tour.

Oklahoma! opens at Wyndham’s Theatre on 28th February, running until 2nd September with special rates available at certain performances for groups of ten or more.

Georgina Onuorah (Ado Annie) and Phillip Olagoke (Cord Elam) join the previously announced cast who reprise their roles from the run at the Young Vic last year.

They are joined by Raphael Bushay (Mike), Arthur Darvill (Curly McLain), James Patrick Davis (Will Parker) and Stavros Demetraki (Ali Hakim).

The rest of the main cast is made up by Greg Hicks (Andrew Carnes), Rebekah Hinds (Gertie Cummings), Anoushka Lucas (Laurey Williams), Liza Sadovy (Aunt Eller) and Patrick Vaill (Jud Fry).

About the show

Winner of the Tony Award for Best Musical Revival, director Daniel Fish’s interpretation of Oklahoma! tells a story of a community banding together against an outsider, and the frontier life that shaped America.

80 years after Rodgers and Hammerstein reinvented the American musical, this version is said to be “funny and sexy, provocative and probing, without changing a word of the text.”

After long and highly distinguished careers with other collaborators, Richard Rodgers (composer, 1902-79) and Oscar Hammerstein II (librettist/lyricist, 1895-1960) joined forces in 1943 to create the most successful partnership in American musical theatre.

Oklahoma! was the first Rodgers and Hammerstein musical. Their shows that followed included Carousel, South Pacific, The King and I and The Sound of Music.
