Allen, Jabara, Etc. Set for Cap21 Oklahoma! Concert Reading

CAP21's Barbara Wolff Classics Series will feature a concert reading of Rodgers and Hammerstein's Oklahoma! Act II on March 26 at 7:30pm.

CAP21's Artistic Director Eliza Ventura helms the staging, performed over two Monday nights in February and March featuring Helen Hayes Award-nominee Glenn Seven Allen (Light in the Piazza, Broadway; Cabaret, Arena Stage) as Curly and a cast made up of CAP21'S Artistic Ensemble including Doug Jabara as Jud, Ann Dowd (Flags of Our Fathers) as Aunt Eller and Courtney Glass (Woman in White) as Laurey.

"Oklahoma!, Rodgers & Hammerstein's first collaboration remains, in many ways, their most innovative, having set the standards and established many of the conventions of musical theatre still used today. Set in pre-statehood Oklahoma Territory just after the turn of the century, the high-spirited rivalry between the local farmers and cowboys provides the colorful background against which Curly, a handsome cowboy, and Laurey, a winsome farm girl, play out their love story," state press materials.

All seats are free to the public but reservations are encouraged and may be made by visiting www.CAP21.org or by calling 212.352.3101. Seating is limited.
