Tulsa, Oklahoma is a great place to be in October. There will be several great activities and events in and around the community this month. Today, October 1, 2008, starts the events off with the Night Ranger, an event that started with five hard-rocking youths from the San Francisco Bay area. The Night Ranger has epitomized the style and sound of the 80's metal pop. The Night Ranger will play at the Tulsa State Fair's Oklahoma Stage at 8 p.m. Just pay to enter the fair and you have a seat.
Thursday, you can catch Rodney Atkins, who has a string of #1 hits and a platinum record. Rodney will perform in the Expo Square Pavilion, at the fair, after the rodeo at 7 p.m. Tickets will be $16 and $23.
Jeff Dunham, the ventriloquist comic, will be at the BOK Center on Friday at 8 p.m. Jeff and his gang, the "Suitcase Posse," will make a stop in Tulsa. Jose Jalapeno, Grumpy Walter, Peanut and more of Dunham's suitcase posse will take the stage for a great show. The event is for all ages, and tickets will range from $40-$45. Tickets are available at the BOK Center box office.
On Saturday, the Tulsa Opera will open its season with a production of one of the most popular opera's in the world - "La Boheme," a Puccini tale of love among Paris' starving artists. A wonderful melding of tragedy and romance.
