Crash landed in the Highlands of Scotland, WW2 fighter pilots Tommy and Jeff are searching for a way home, whilst just beyond the hills, sisters Fiona and Jean are preparing for a wedding. Over the course of one chance day in the dreamlike village of Brigadoon, their stories entwine. But can love endure in this enchanting place where everything is not quite as it seems?
Not seen in London for over 35 years, Brigadoon features soaring songs including *‘Almost Like Being in Love’, ‘Waitin’ for My Dearie’* and *‘The Heather on the Hill’*. In a new adaptation by leading Scottish playwright Rona Munro (*The James Plays* (Evening Standard Award), *Frankenstein*), this revival of a theatrical classic is directed and choreographed by Olivier Award winner Drew McOnie (*Jesus Christ Superstar*) in his first production as Artistic Director of Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre.
