Mollie Anger : Laurey

Laurey is a strong-willed girl who questions many social expectations . While her affection leans to Curly , she has feelings for Jud as well , though he scares her . In the end , Laurey does what she needs to do , boldly , by firing Jud and choosing Curly . Mollie Anger is a current junior at Pequannock Township High School . Her favorite part about participating in Oklahoma was the opportunity to sing such entertaining music and perform alongside extremely talented individuals . Mollie ’ s favorite scene in Oklahoma was when she fought with Jud and fired him . She thoroughly enjoyed getting very angry at him . Mollie also loved when the iconic Aunt Eller fired a gun during Farmer and the Cowman . Reflecting back , her favorite memory was playing “ Ellerball ” ( like tolleyball ) in between our Saturday afternoon and evening shows to shake off nerves and raise the cast ’ s energy .

Andrew Cusimano : Will Parker

Will Parker is a fun , energetic , and good-hearted cowboy known for his skills with a lasso around the territory . He won first prize at the fair with these skills and is now 50 dollars richer . He plans to use this money to win over the heart of the woman he loves , Ado Annie . Andrew Cusimano is a current junior at Pequannock Township High School . His favorite part about the PTHS musical experience is the social aspect . In his perspective , “ You learn to work well with your castmates and then those castmates quickly become your best friends ”. He believes that working together with a large group of people for a few months creates a lot of life-long memories . Andrew ’ s favorite scene is the entire scene between Will and Ado Annie and their song , “ All er Nothin ”. It was an extremely lively and comedic song to sing and dance to . The audience always loved it ! His favorite memory was tech rehearsals , everyone sitting in the hallway doing hair and makeup and listening to music together . “ It was a great bonding experience and was a lot of fun . Just talking with everyone and sharing stories is always my favorite part of every show here at PTHS ”.
