State Fair

Whether you are looking for blue ribbons or for adventure and romance, this Rodgers Hammerstein show delivers! A slice of Americana straight from the heartland, State Fair is now available for young performers through ninth grade in this "G2K" edition that follows an Iowa family as they leave behind the routine of the farm for three days of fun at the Iowa State Fair. Adapted to run about one hour, with music arranged especially for young teens and tweens, the Show Kit includes a recorded track with sound effects and atmospheres for the Carnival Midway, a Pie-Judging Contest, Hog Squeals, an old-fashioned dance at the Pavilion, and more. With standards from the Great American Songbook, this show is sweet, corny, and altogether lovable - just the kind of warm-hearted entertainment that only Rodgers and Hammerstein could deliver! Songs include: Opening (Our State Fair); It Might as Well Be Spring; Our State Fair; More than Just a Friend; Isn't It Kinda Fun?; That's the Way It Happens; When I Go Out Walking with My Baby; It's a Grand Night for Singing; All I Owe Ioway.
