Drama club to present Oklahoma!

Oct. 5, 2009—Mark your calendar for Duanesburg Middle/High School's production of Rogers and Hammerstein's Oklahoma!

The musical includes touching romances, western-style brawls, toe-tapping music and enthusiastic dances. The setting is the Indian territory now known as the state of Oklahoma. The story follows the lives of several young people as they search for their place in this developing society.

The show is directed by music teacher Mira Ordon, with choreography by Jackie Amorosi-Stark and accompaniment by Karen Edson. Scenery is being created by high school students in Kevin DiTondo's 2D and 3D art classes.

Performances will be held in the Duanesburg Middle/High School gym on Friday, Oct. 30, at 7 p.m., and on Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 31 and Nov. 1, at 2 p.m. The admission price is $6.00 for general admission and $5.00 for senior citizens.
