Oklahoma Shakespeare in the Park is an incredible theater company whose productions are bold, re-imagined, and always entertaining. The best part is that they make Shakespeare and other classics accessible to everyone. They perform at the Myriad Botanical Gardens Water Stage and also on stages throughout the city. What sets them apart is that they are active year-round, producing plays, staged readings, and working with students and teachers in exciting workshops and events. It's great to see a theater company that is so dedicated to making the classics come alive for new generations of audiences.

In 1988, a group of citizens who cared about preserving history started a project to restore the beautiful facades of old buildings in Guthrie. This project revitalized the city and created a thriving tourism industry that still benefits Guthrie today. As part of the project, the Logan County Historical Society brought back the long-forgotten trolley system, and the First Capital Trolley Co. was founded. Nowadays, these charming green trolleys can be seen all over the Guthrie Historic District, providing a convenient and valuable public service that many other towns of Guthrie's size can only dream of having.
