Green Grow the Lilacs (play)

Green Grow the Lilacs is a play by Lynn Riggs.

It had four out-of-town tryouts, playing first at the Tremont Theatre in Boston December 8–20, 1930 then moving to the Garrick Theatre in Philadelphia from December 29, 1930 to January 10, 1931. The production played Ford's Theatre in Baltimore the following week. It then played January 19–24, 1931, at the National Theatre in Washington, D.C. A projected final tryout in Pittsburgh was cancelled, as the play was deemed ready for New York.

It was performed 64 times on Broadway, opening at the Guild Theatre on January 26, 1931, and closing March 21, 1931.

It is the basis of the 1943 musical Oklahoma!, which had a 1955 film adaptation.
