Curly McClain, a spunky, singing cowboy is trying to win the heart of his childhood friend, Laurey Williams, in a blood-pumping, heart-stealing western that will sing your heart away.
I have never seen the old version of "Oklahoma" but I know a pretty good bit about it. I saw "Oklahoma" put on by a church in my town when I was about six, but I don't remember much about it.
I really enjoyed this version, the British know how to do musicals! I loved how they made Laurey a tomboy in the beginning to show us how strong and willful she is. Josefina Gabrielle is like a younger, brunette Shirley Jones. She has a beautiful singing voice, she is a beautiful dancer, and a great actress. Did I mention that she's beautiful? I really liked how the actors did their own dancing in the Dream sequence.
I thought Hugh Jackman was amazing. To think that this is the guy who plays Wolverine!!!! This man is is an amazing actor. He's good-looking (very), he can sing, he can dance, and he can really act. He does a very good southern accent. He's also a very believable romantic hero.
Jud was great. That voice…oh my gosh! Such a rich voice, it's like "Lonely Room" was written for him. And Aunt Eller….oh I looove Aunt Eller. She steals the show. She's perfect.
I have nothing bad to say about this show. It's well-done. I just wish Hollywood and Broadway could do more things like this.
