Backdrops for Oklahoma Backdrops

The story starts with Aunt Eller and Laurie, an Oklahoma farm gal who is courted by boisterous cowboy Curley and by menacing, obsessive farm hand Jud Frye, awaiting neighbors to arrive at their Oklahoma territory farmstead on their way to a box social. Fearing that Jud will do something terrible to Curley, Laurie accepts Jud's invitation to the box social. But it's Curley who rescues Laurie from Jud's unwanted advances, and in so doing wins her hand. On the eve of their wedding, Laurie and Curley are menaced by the drunken Jud. During a fight with Curley, Jud falls on his own knife and is killed. The local deputy insists that Curley be arrested and stand trial, but he is outvoted by Curley's friends, and the newlyweds are permitted to ride off on their honeymoon. A comic subplot involving innocently promiscuous Ado Annie, her erstwhile sweetheart Will Parker and lascivious travelling salesman Ali Hakim help lighten the serious tone of the musical.
