Oklahoma joins `sold -out' list
A packed house was
treated to a delightful
evening of Tight en-
tertainment with the opening
of Rodgers and Ham-
mers( ein's musicale

Tuesday.
The ambitious
pertorntanee engagement
was sold out before the
curtain went up on opening
night. Only mutt seats are
available to theatre goers
ho don't have reservations
tothis show about the
emerging American West in
the 1900's.
The 20 -piece. orchestra

Purvis, combined w ith an
excellent music st'or'e.
carries the play through a
very lengthly first act. 'Oh,
What A Bt tutifuI Morning,
The Surrey With the Fringe
on Top, and People Will Say
We're in Love. brought
entendeil applause from the
appreclatI%e audience.
Ross Douglas as Curly
displays the strongest
singing pertormanee in --his
role as the your cowboy
courting Laurey, laved by
Ly nda Langford.
, Murray Ellis as the hired
hand villain, who is set on
breaking up the relationship
in this classical love story,
turns in a very creditable
performance.
Brenda Bradley, as the
girl who can't say no. keeps
the play from dragging with
her welt -timed one liners.
• Technically the play could
be tighter with the sound
effects better timed to the
action on stage. Twice in the
eterung's performance,
gunshots missed the -cue. --No
doubt- these rougtredgies a itt
be smoothed out in sub -
-.sentient performances..
James Murray directs the
26 -member cast jn one of the
largest productions in the
Playhouse's seven seasons.
--Although the play was

Its charm tor.the au fence iii
