The REV Theatre Company opens the third production of its 2022 season - Rodgers & Hammerstein's State Fair. The show runs August 17th - September 6th at the Merry-Go-Round Playhouse in Auburn, NY.

Set against the colorful backdrop of an American heartland tradition, State Fair travels with the Frake family as they leave behind the routine of the farm for three days of adventure at the annual Iowa State Fair.

Featuring beloved songs from the R&H catalog and an Academy Award-winning score, plus spectacular choreography and an endearing coming-of-age story, State Fair is a nostalgic kind of warm-hearted family entertainment only Rodgers & Hammerstein could deliver!

State Fair is directed by The REV's Producing Artistic Director, Brett Smock, and choreographed by Marc Kimelman. Elle May Patterson serves as Assistant Choreographer. The show features musical direction by Alexander Tom, scenic design by Jeff Kmeic and associate Milo Bue, lighting design by Jamie Roderick, and sound design by Daniel Lundberg. Costume design is by resident designer Tiffany Howard with hair and makeup design by Alfonso Annotto. Dan Mullarney serves as Assistant Musical Director. The show is stage managed by Kent James Collins.
