About the Show

Brigadoon was the first big hit for the magical team of Lerner and Loewe. Inspired by a German story, the musical revolves around two American tourists, Tommy and Jeff, who stumble upon a misty little Scottish town. Tommy soon falls in love with a local lass, Fiona, but as the two men quickly discover, this mysterious little town only reawakens for one day every hundred years. Brigadoon boasts one of the richest scores in musical comedy and includes such glorious songs as “Come to Me, Bend to Me,” “Almost Like Being in Love,” “I’ll Go Home with Bonnie Jean,” and “My Mother’s Weddin’ Day.” This is a tribute to simplicity, true love and goodness, which is hidden from the ordinary traveler.
