If you liked Oklahoma – get ready – Brigadoon is here!!
Last spring, The Wayland Union Education Foundation, underwrote and produced the musical “Oklahoma!” with the support of Wayland Union Schools and Community talent. The musical was a big hit. We are now ready for our second venture, and will be presenting “Brigadoon” the classic family musical, on March 27, 28, 29, and 30, 2008 at in the Wayland Union High School Auditorium.

The Lerner and Loewe musical, Brigadoon, is the story of two young New Yorkers hunting in the Highlands of Scotland who become lost. When they become exhausted and sure that they will never find their way out, the mist lifts to reveal to them the village of Brigadoon; a village which comes into being for only one day in each century. Show tunes include Heather on the Hill, I'll Go Home with Bonnie Jean, and Almost Like Being in Love. The fate of the two adventurers and the misty mood of this Highland setting is complimented by beautiful, 18th century costuming.
