This joyous musical first established the standards for musical theater still being followed today. Set just after the turn of the century, the high-spirited rivalry between farmers and cowboys provides a colorful backdrop for a handsome cowboy and a winsome farm girl to discover new love.
Every song is a Broadway classic from Oh What a Beautiful Mornin’, to Out of My Dreams, to the title finale.
