Schmigadoon! review: The Broadway adaptation is a 150-minute smile faithful to its Apple TV series roots
A loving, winking, unabashedly cheesy valentine to Golden Age musicals, Schmigadoon! cherry-picks plotlines, melodies, and archetypes from Broadway classics Oklahoma!, Carousel, The Music Man, and dozens more — most notably Brigadoon. As in the 1947 Lerner and Loewe classic, our lead duo find themselves trapped in a mysterious land, in this case a town where everyone sings and dances as though they are in a musical. According to the leprechaun who magically appears when Josh and Melissa attempt to cross the bridge out of town only to find themselves in a loop returning to the town border, they will only be able to leave with their "true love."
