RODGERS & HAMMERSTEIN’S STATE FAIR Music by Richard Rodgers Rodgers & Hammerstein’s only musical written directly for the screen is now a Broadway musical, perfect for the whole family! 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. Mom and Pop have their hearts set on blue ribbons, while their children Margy and Wayne find romance and heartbreak on the midway. Set to the magical strains of an Academy Award-winning score and augmented by other titles from the Rodgers and Hammerstein songbook, State Fair is the kind of warm-hearted family entertainment only Rodgers & Hammerstein could deliver!
Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II
