Oklahoma! with Josh Thia

This week we chat with friend-of-the-show Josh Thia about which of life's truths can be gleaned from the rootin-est, tootin-est musicals this side of the mountain - Oklahoma!

In the New York Herald Tribune, Howard Barnes wrote, "Songs, dances, and a story have been triumphantly blended. ... The Richard Rodgers score is one of his best, and that is saying plenty. Oscar Hammerstein 2nd has written a dramatically imaginative libretto and a string of catchy lyrics; Agnes de Mille has worked small miracles in devising original dances to fit the story and the tunes, while Rouben Mamoulian has directed an excellent company with great taste and craftsmanship."
