London Theatre Royal – Oklahoma – 1948
An original programme from the Theatre Royal, London, dated 25 November 1948, for Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Oklahoma!, with Jennie Gregson, Chris Robinson, Isabel Bigley and Ivor Smith.
Its blend of story, song and Agnes de Mille’s dream ballet transformed the musical, and post-war London audiences flocked to its colourful vision of frontier America.
From the celebrated original London run, this is a much-loved piece among old theatre programmes of the 1940s.
