Connecticut Yankee
Jul 24-Aug 9
A Rodgers & Hart Musical Comedy!
The Shedd Institute proudly presents Rodgers & Hart's wonderful musical comedy, A Connecticut Yankee in a 7 performance, all-new production at The Shedd! This is Rodgers & Hart at their best. It is just as insanely incongruous as Mark Twain's original with wonderful Rodgers melodies and spot-on Hart wit to boot. Look for the classic “Thou Swell” and “My Heart Stood Still”, together with fun numbers like “On A Desert Isle With Thee”, "To Keep My Love Alive", "Ye Lunchtime Follies", "The Camelot Samba" and more!

George Gershwin

Rhapsody In Blue in 1924
On February 12, 1924, almost at the end of an experimental concert put on by banndleader Paul Whiteman at New York’s Aeolian Hall, a young theatre composer named George Gershwin took the stage, Whiteman lifted his baton, the Palais Royale clarinetist played that now-famous opening glissando, and the rest, as they say, is history. OFAM jazz director Ken Peplowski, pianist Bill Mays and a hot big band re-create the masterpiece Gershwin premiered that night and more! Read more...
Oklahoma!
Jul 30-Aug 9
A Rodgers & Hammerstein Masterpiece
Our second musical at this summer's Oregon Festival of American Music will be Rodgers & Hammerstein's 1943 masterpiece Oklahoma! in a 4 performance, all-new production at the Hult Center. A musical adaptation of Lynn Rigg’s 1931 play, Green Grow The Lilacs, wasn’t the first “serious” musical, to stand out against the comedies that dominated the 1920s and ‘30s, but it was--and remains today--one of the best. Oklahoma! is filled with classic songs. Look for "Oh, What A Beautiful Morning", "The Surrey With The Fringe On Top", "I'm Just A Girl Who Cain't Say No", "People Will Say We're In Love", and more.
