*ABOUT  THE PLAY*



Rodgers and Hammerstein's first collaboration remains in many ways their
most innovative, having set the standards and established the rules of
musical theater still being followed today. Set in a western Indian
territory just after the turn of the century, the high spirited rivalry
between the local farmers and the cowboys, provides a colorful background
against which Curly, a handsome cowboy and Laurey, a winsome farm girl,
play out their love story. True love never runs smooth, with these two
headstrong romantics holding the reins. Love's journey is as bumpy as a
surrey ride down a country road.
