R+H’s only musical written directly for the screen is now a Broadway musical!

Mom and Pop have their hearts set on blue ribbons while their daughter and son find romance and heartbreak on the midway.

Featuring your favorite R+H songs and an Academy Award-winning score including A Grand Night For Singing, It Might As Well Be Spring,, plus spectacular choreography and a dollop of Americana, State Fair is a nostalgic kind of warm-hearted family entertainment only Rodgers & Hammerstein could deliver!
