I was an usher at the Village Theater when Oklahoma played, in Hilton Village.  I must have seen it 100 times.  
So, I could sing, say all the words to all the songs back then, uh 1957?.

   COOL BEANS! Actually, it might even have been earlier than that; Oklahoma was released in the USA on 10/11/55:

   Thanks, Norris! It's one of my favorite shows, and I memorized those great songs (well, MOST of them!) long ago myself!
