Brigadoon
Book and Lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner
Music by Frederick Lowe
performed March 29 & 30, 1968
Directed by Mrs. Bernice Engelbrecht
"The
legendary tale of Brigadoon, a small town in a forest in the Scottish
highlands, that appears for one day every century, unchanged by history
and un touched by progress.
Two young Americans, Tommy Albright and Jeff Douglas, happen upon the town while on a hunting expedition. They are fascinated when they learn of the legend of Brigadoon. In the 24 hours they are there, they become quite involved in the lives of the townspeople. There is a wedding and afuneral, a beginning and an ending. Tommy falls in love with Fiona Maclaren, one of the lasses of Brigadoon. As the town vanishes, Tommy says goodbye to her forever. He and Jeff return to New York, but Tommy finds he cannot suppress his love for Fiona, and can think of nothing but her. His love is so strong that she comes back and takes him with her, into the mist of the highlands, not to return for a hundred years. Deserving praise for her countless hours of work in directing and producing this fantastic play is Mrs. Bernice Engelbrecht. The realistic costumes and scenery drew the audience into the awe of the surroundings. The hard-working cast and crew did a magnificant job of putting on a show that was an experience to remember."
