I have to be in Chicago on Wednesday and I notice "Brigadoon" is at the Goodman. Anyone seen it?

The book has been reworked... The score is glorious... The cast first-rate and it's probably one of the best sung musicals I've ever seen.

Most certainly worth your time.

Saw it a couple of weeks ago. Strong, sturdy production. Well-sung and danced with a stellar Chicago cast led be Kevin Earley as Tommy. Stunning use of projections. Backstory has been revised to make it more historically accurate which kind of works against the fantasy element.

Yes, it's very good and definitely worth seeing, especially for the Fiona.
