Nov. 10-12
Profile Players Perform Classic Musical: Oklahoma!

Curtain times are 7PM on Thursday, November 10th and Friday November 11th and at 1PM and 7PM on Saturday, November 12th. Ticket prices are $8 for adults and $5 for students and can be purchased at the door.

Put on your cowboy boots and get out your lassos! On November 10th, 11th and 12th, the Colonial Theatre will be filled with the cowboys and farmers who settled the territory of Oklahoma at the turn of the 20th century, and audiences will be treated to such all-time classic musical numbers as "Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin'," "Surrey with the Fringe on Top," and, of course, "Oklahoma!" The production of the Rodgers and Hammerstein classic, Oklahoma! will mark the fourth collaboration of Profile teachers, Matt Nelson and Jen McVetty as music director and production director, respectively, and the show involves the participation of half a dozen Profile staff and over fifty Profile students.

On Friday, Veterans Day, admission for veterans of our armed forces is free in appreciation of their service. During each show, theatre patrons will have the opportunity to donate to the Altobelli Scholarship Fund in memory of Profile guidance counselor, Alan Campbell, who recently lost his battle with cancer. It was Alan's wish that donations be made to this fund, which is named for Profile graduate Joey Altobelli, who also succumbed to cancer. The musical Oklahoma! was Alan's favorite, and all productions will be performed in honor of him and in memory of all he did for his students and his community.
