AMERICAN FORK — Actors from all over the Utah County area and residents involved in the American Fork and Highland Arts Councils are combining their talents, time and energy to put "Oklahoma" on stage in American Fork.

Kittie Tenney is the producer and sees the opportunity as one to not only save money and effort but to bring the two communities together as well.

"Highland really has no facility," Tenney said. "A collaborative effort seemed like a good idea. We're combining our budgets so we have a budget. We're renting some costumes, and we have a set designer who is retired from Hollywood."

The show features a cast of 50 with members involved from Lehi to Springville. Josh Long is the director with musical and assistant direction by Katie Tenney.

Cast members include: Mason Lefler as Jud, Chase Grant at Will Parker, Brooke Hess as Ado Annie and Eileen Snow as Aunt Eller.
