Oklahoma! UK Tour Dates

A new tour of Oklahoma! starring Marti Webb kicks off at the New Theatre Cardiff on 6th April and then performs at venues up and down the country until it finishes at the Millennium Forum  in Derry on 20th November.

The story is set in times of conflict between farmers and cattlemen, and tells the tale of farm girl Laurey and the two rivals for her affections: the cowboy Curly and  sinister farm hand Jud.

It includes the classic numbers Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin' , Surrey with The Fringe on Top, People Will Say We're in Love, I Cain't Say No and Oklahoma.

The show stars Marti Webb as Aunt Eller and Mark Evans (runner up in the BBC’s Eurovision Song search “Your Country Needs You”) as Curly.

We enjoyed this earlier this evening and I can't praise it enough.
The standard is incredibly high, with stunning performances from the leading characters and excellent sets too.
The casting is very good with a sinister Judd and handsome Curly, and when he removes his shirt...well, words failed me and I heard gasps from the ladies surrounding me in the audience!
Go and see it, it's worth every penny..

I agree. I saw it recently and thought it was an excellent production with a really strong cast. Good to see Marti Webb back on stage.

Totally agree. I saw it last week and thoroughly enjoyed it. Mark Evans leads a strong cast and the staging is excellent.

What a wonderful production, saw this at Nottingham Wed 8th Sept, very well produced, particularly well cast. Judd made me shudder! Curly made me faint (well nearly!!) A thoroughly enjoyable show, well done to the cast and crew.

YIPPEE...!
Marti Webb and the whole cast of Oklahoma really brightened our holiday in Norfolk on 16th Sept (Matinee). A terrific show, not a dud note and so much real talent - singing, dancing, acting - it was breathtaking. Thank you all.
