SKOKIE, Ill.—Imagine two tourists walking into a foreign land through a rolling countryside as they come upon an ancient stone bridge. They know it’s a town in Scotland, but they can’t find it on their map, and as they try to discover where they’re at, a cloudy mist surfaces from the bridge to reveal a charming old-world village. As they try to get their bearings, they hear the haunting sound of a song, “Brigadoon.”
That’s how the enchanting musical “Brigadoon” begins. Two Americans on vacation, Tommy and Jeff, stumble onto the town square of a Scottish village where they are invited to join the townspeople in celebrating an upcoming wedding with a rousing dance to the tune of “I’ll Go Home with Bonnie Jean.”
