    I was very intrigued when I saw the cover. I have never heard of Brigadoon before, but the bagpipes, obviously, grabbed my attention.
    Now this is going to really date me, but as a lad I saw the stage show with Robert Goullet in the "Valley Music Hall Theater" just outside Salt Lake City, always wanted to be in the show but was never at the "wrong" place at the "wrong" time to do Brigadont.

    In all my days in the theater I never had the opportunity to do a kilted part, so last year when some one asked I jumped...Right down the rabbit hole........

    Now since you had never heard about Brigadoon, lets just talk about that fine form of entertainment known as MUSICAL THEATER <grabbing hat and avoiding shoes, tomatoes and other rotten vegetables being thrown by the rabble> (Hey you either love it or you don't, I can still sing all the songs from Guys and Dolls...Oh Luck be a Lady tonight........night Gracie.......

    Should we not stick with musicals featuring men wearing unbifurcated garments (such as A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, Jesus Christ Superstar, Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, ...)?

    Hmmm. We could apply a 2-degrees-of-separation rule there, since it's based on Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet, which was originally staged with some players in unbifurcated tunics and others in dresses. Same for Kiss Me, Kate, The Boys From Syracuse, and Galt McDermot's Two Gentlemen of Verona, not to mention From A Jack to a King, based on Macbeth. And then there are the operas...

    When you're with X Marks,
    You're a X Marker all the way
    From your very first kilt
    To your last dyin' day.

    When you're with X Marks,
    If your sporran’s too low,
    You got family around,
    We‘ll let you know!

    You're never left to fret,
    For friends you never lack!
    You're home on the ‘Net
    We’ll cut you some slack
    But we got your back!

    Then you with X Marks
    With a capital X,
    And you’ll have the smarts
    Till they cart you away.
    When you're with X Marks
    You stay with X Marks!






    Cheers

    Theater in the round - operated 1965 to about 1970. Co-founded by Art Linkletter. Now it belongs to the LDS Church and is their Bountiful Utah Regional Center (whatever that is).

    I saw Oklahoma there. This while I was in late junior or early senior highschool. A couple of my classmates were in that production

    So Brice, did you grow up outside of Utah? Junior or senior highschool productions of Brigadoon pretty much de rigueur.
