Musical 'Oklahoma! Ok!' The junior high auditorium transformed into the rolling plains of turn-of-the-century America for the annual spring musical. West Carrollton Senior High School put on the Rodgers and Hammerstein production of Oklahoma! on April 23, 24, and 25. Working with a small cast, Director Floyd Lowman presented a very successful and entertaining production. “With the size of the cast in mind, this is one of the finest high school productions we’ve ever seen,” said Mr. and Mrs. Aultz. Lowman added that this production may have been the best musical put on by West Carrollton High School. Rob Stivers and Andrea Burns were cast as the leads. Curly and Laurie.
