A Dream Come True Once in the Highlands, the Highlands of Scotland, two weary hunters lost their way .. These were the first words sung by the nervous chorus backstage after the kisses and good lucks had been passed out That final moment had arrived — the one they had an- ticipated for the past four months. The curtain opened to a dark starlit stage Tommy Albright (Tim Nelson) and Jeff Douglas (Richard Carbin) were trying to figure out where they were. Suddenly the fog lifted and revealed a small village called Brigadoon Tommy and Jeff, two New York hunters, suddenly found themselves in the town where the villagers were making final plans for a wedding. They were surprised at the strange things they found and the way people were dressed. The cast was fully suited in eighteenth century costume. As the day moved on Tommy found himself falling in love with Fiona Maclaren (Ann Kwiatkowski), a young maid of Brigadoon The day continued and Tommy and Jeff learned that this was a fantasy village, and the magic of Brigadoon came to life only once every one hundred years. This magic was special and in order for it to last, no villagers might ever leave Briga- doon With this in mind. Tommy was faced with a big deci- sion He could either stay with Fiona, the one he loved in Brigadoon, or return to lane Aston (Wendy Huff) his fiance in New York Not yet ready to commit himself to his dream. Tommy returned to New York. Back home he found everything reminded him of Fiona He felt he must return to Scotland and fulfill his dream This year the sets and scenery were created by the students at Scotia. A big contribution was made by Mrs. Kathy Krogh who created her own special brand of magic with a paint brush. The forest and trees looked so real they seemed to sway with the breeze Our director, Mrs. Terry Paulson, brought many new ideas from the sabbatical she had taken in the first half of the year. New make-up techni- ques and helpful acting exercises were among a few Did you ever have one of those days when you needed to get away from the problems of everyday life? Tommy did and was lucky enough to find a place with peace and tran- quility Wouldn't it be nice if we could all find our own Brigadoon' Shoo fly don't bother me! Fiona, Fiona, where forth art thou, Fiona? An apple a day helps keep the doctor Please, can I use the buggy tonight' These late rehearsals get to your eyes. 4
