Oklahoma is O-K

L-A-H-O-M-A , Oklahoma! Yow!

The fact that the song Oklahoma is playing in my head at this moment is John Ur's fault. Of course, I do still know a song medley of the musical by heart thanks to high school choir days, but over at Intelligent Travel, John Ur's mention of the lyrics to "Oklahoma" in his post about movies filmed in this state, put me in a red gingham dress and cowboy boots looking for a surrey with fringe on the top.

When I read Ur's post, I flashed back to my own Oklahoma experience sitting in the audience of an outdoor production of "Oklahoma!" This outdoor theater in Tulsa uses real horses and wagon and a building was set on fire. At least that's what I remember. Discoveryland's season runs June 6--August 16, so you still have time to plan your trip here.

This is a professional production with crowd pleasing appeal. It's also kid-friendly. I only went to the main production, but you can add a western-style dinner and before show entertainment.
