Rodgers and Hammerstein's Oklahoma! (London Stage Revival) Reviews
Wonderful cast
I've seen this show on stage, and of course, remember the delightful version with Shirley Jones, but this production had the strongest set of voices I've ever heard. The acting was good, the sets inventive, and the dancing terrific. The only thing that sometimes bothered me were the camera angles chosen. The sound quality is terrific, and now I can't stop humming 'Oh What a Beautiful Day.'
London Stage Revival of Oklahoma!
Director Trevor Nunn and Choreographer Susan Stroham have created a revival of Rodgers and Hammerstein's Oklahoma! which is many times better than the original production! And the idea of taping a live performance complete with an audience allows the watcher to see inside what a professional company does to create the magic of an American musical. The British cast (including multi-talented Hugh Jackman) does an amazing job in creating rich, believable characters. The scenery, lighting and costuming are very different from the original production, but much more realistic and accurate to the period and the spirited pioneer people. I thoroughly enjoyed both the performance DVD and the extra disc which explores how it was made. Both are top quality!
