Plans for the Highland Farm property are two-fold: first, to preserve the historic home where Oscar and his family lived for 20 years while writing his “big five” — Oklahoma!, Carousel, South Pacific, The King & I and The Sound of Music. The home will be open to the public for tours, for all to see and experience the magic of the place where Oscar was when he penned lyrics such as, "The corn is as high as the elephant's eye.." Secondly, we will convert the barn to become a theatre education center, where young aspiring theatre artists can hone their singing, dancing and acting skills, inspired by Oscar’s legacy. The center will primarily seek to provide underserved communities the opportunity to pursue their passions in theatre.
