‘Oklahoma! really is different – beautifully different,’ wrote one reviewer of the 1943 musical. Bursting not just with tunes but also with emotions, this rst collaboration between Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II brought new dramatic depth to the Broadway musical, creating a smash hit in the process. Proms favourites John Wilson and his orchestra return to bring their signature energy and swagger to this beloved classic. 

Semi-staged.

Tickets £18 - £70.
