This theatrical trailer is for the 1962 version of the Rodger and Hammerstein musical State Fair, directed by José Ferrer and starring Pat Boone, Bobby Darin, Alice Faye, Ann-Margret, Tome Ewell, and Pamela Tiffin. The film tells the story of the Frake family visiting the Texas State Fair, where romance buds for son Wayne and daughter Margy as they learn about life away from the farm. It is the remake of the 1933 and 1945 films of the same name, though additional music was written by Richard Rodgers for this version. State Fair was filmed in Dallas at Fair Park.
