Join a distinguished panel of theater luminaries who will discuss last season’s daring, celebrated, and hotly debated staging of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s beloved 1943 musical theater landmark Oklahoma!

Panelists include Daniel Fish, the production’s visionary director; Ted Chapin, who heads the Rodgers and Hammerstein Organization; and cast members Rebecca Naomi Jones (Laurey), Patrick Vaill (Jud), and Gabrielle Hamilton, who performed a radically re-imagined dream ballet. Together, they discuss the delicate balance between honoring the creators’ intentions and re-fashioning a 75-year- old masterpiece for a contemporary audience, moderated by theater and film historian Foster Hirsch.

This free online program is presented by The National Arts Club.
