Brigadoon, is a classic musical that seems to inspire more memories than it does modern-day productions, Lerner and Loewe’s 1947 tale of love, fate and a magical Scottish village that
appears from the mist but once a year seems ripe for the type of revival that many a dusty old title has received on Broadway in recent years. But theater lovers in Chicago don’t have to wait to see if that happens – thanks to director Rachel Rockwell and her talented cast, the bagpipes are calling and memorable tunes like “Almost Like Being in Love” are ringing out all summer long in the Loop Theater District. Due to popular demand, performances have been extended through August 10 at Goodman Theatre (170 N. Dearborn, 312.443.3800). Tickets ($25-$97, subject to change) are available at 312.443.3800 or goodmantheatre.org/Brigadoon.
