The Indian Territory, now Oklahoma, just after the turn of the century on a radiant summer morning, is the scene of the musical "Oklahoma." Cattle in a meadow, blades of young corn, streams - even the shapes of earthmen with that "golden clarity which makes them seem to exist for the first time" - this is the setting which Warren Wolf and his art students are cre ating on the stage of Medford High school auditorium for the production. It will be giv en by the Medford High school choir April 21-22-23. All members of the choir are attending extra rehear sals beginning this week. Mu sic, dances, and lines have been memorized, the play is now being "put together." Re hearsal accompanists are Ruth Coovert, Linda Carver, De Etta Lawson, Pam Gilkison and Judy Carver. Prompters are Barbara Whalin and San dra Bates. The story concerns a shy young cowboy, Curly, and his romanic pursuit of a demure farm girl named Laurie. Al though she secretly admires him, she plays the traditional role of a scornful, hard-to-get young lady. Curly tries to im press her with the famous hired "surrey with the fringe on top." Their romance is compli cated by Jud Fry, a no-ac-count farm hand who tries to force his attention on Laurie. His jealousy and rage add a note of drama and suspense to the plot. Comedy is pro vided by fickle-hearted Ado Annie, the girl "who can't say no," whose capers with Ali Hakim, a Uersian Peddler and Will Parker, a young cow hand, frame many laugh lines. "Oklahoma's" story is bas ed on Lynn Riggs' "Green Grow the Lilacs," which was first produced by the Theatre Guild on April 1, 1943 at the St. James theatre in New York City. Lighting of the stage for the "golden glow" is under the direction of Robert Sted man and his technicians. Ken Peck is head of the student Every member of the choir Is now selling tickets.
