You can’t be a cowboy (or cowgirl) unless you’ve got a set of boots—and Space Cowboy Boots brings some El Paso flavor to its Nolita surroundings. The OKLAHOMA! gang know their way around these intricately designed beauties (perfect for two-stepping every night on stage!) and know it’s key to get a good pair. And they are in safe hands at this Mulberry St spot, with an extensive selection of high-quality handmade creations sourced straight from Mexico and Texas. Prices aren’t cheap, but the kicks and their stacked Cuban heels should be able to survive any run-ins at the rodeo.
Whether you're an OKLAHOMA! super-fan or you've never seen the Rodgers and Hammerstein classic, we guarantee that you've never experienced this production's vision of the American Frontier. This Tony Award-winning Broadway revival offers a darker, stripped-down and sexier vision of this fascinating, complex era that shaped our country. It's swiftly shaping up to being the hottest ticket of this summer; audiences and critics alike have raved about it. Our critic wrote, "It's thrilling to see a Broadway classic rise to the challenge of so modern a conception. OKLAHOMA! it remains, but there's nothing corny about it".
