Tulsa-area native Will Rogers was a multimedia star like no other before or since. A cowboy with a folksy sense of humor and mad rope-trick skills, he found success as a vaudeville performer, newspaper columnist, radio host, and stage and screen actor. He was the leading political wit and highest paid Hollywood movie star of his time. "The Will Rogers Follies" tells the story of his amazing life (1879-1935) in a series of Ziegfeld Follies-style song-and-dance numbers. With a book by Peter Stone, music by Cy Coleman, and lyrics by Betty Comden and Adolph Green, the show won six 1991 Tony Awards, including Best Musical and Best Original Score.
