The Pembroke Pines Theatre of the Performing Arts Presents BRIGADOON, Auditions Held 1/5, 1/6/2010

Can you believe it? It is once again time for auditions! Coming January 2010, we will be holding auditions for Brigadoon. Please see below for more information.

About Brigadoon Come with us the the magical world of BRIGADOON. When two American tourists get lost in the Scottish Highlands they suddenly come upon a tiny village that's not on any map. The people of the village are very strange to them in that they've never heard of a telephone or seen a modern coin. We eventually learn that a miracle has taken place here and the entire village only exists for one day every one hundred years.
Against the backdrop of this beautiful fable is a story about the power of love and how it can create a miracle all its own.

With a lovely score by Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Lowe, BRIGADOON introduced such classic tunes as "Almost Like Being in Love" and "The Heather on the Hill".
