Not believing he is in Brigadoon, Jeff Douglas (Jim Schmidt) asks Meg (Christy Darnell). Four sell-out crowds view first musical More than 2,(540 persons saw New Haven ' s first musical, Brigadoon. The new addition to New Haven was a complete sell-out in the high school auditorium Nov. 21, 22, 2.3, and 2.5. Work started on Brigadoon two weeks after the opening of school. This was the first time a New Ha- ven production was presented by the entire student body. Students became actors, builders, singers, and dancers, under the direction of Mr. Milton Sinn, Mr. Carl Nicholas, Mr. Dennis Benson, and Mrs. Julia Tracy. The 29-piece orchestra directed by Mr. Ron Best was a combination of volunteers from the Band. All back- stage work was done by seven student committees. The costume committee had last- minute trouble when the rented cos- tumes got lost on the way from Phil- adelphia to New Haven. After two days of trying to find the costumes, they appeared at Baer Field.
