Brigadoon revival announced as part of Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre programme

The show will run from 2 August to 20 September

Crash landed in the Highlands of Scotland, WW2 fighter pilots Tommy and Jeff are searching for a way home, whilst just beyond the hills, sisters Fiona and Jean are preparing for a wedding. Over the course of one chance day in the dreamlike village of Brigadoon, their stories entwine. But can love endure in this enchanting place where everything is not quite as it seems?

Not seen in London for over 35 years, Brigadoon features soaring songs including ‘Almost Like Being in Love’, ‘Waitin’ for My Dearie’ and ‘The Heather on the Hill’.

In a new adaptation by leading Scottish playwright Rona Munro (The James Plays (Evening Standard Award), Frankenstein), this revival of a theatrical classic is directed and choreographed by Olivier Award winner Drew McOnie (Jesus Christ Superstar) in his first production as Artistic Director of Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre.

Danielle Fiamanya was announced as Fiona MacLaren and Louis Gaunt was announced as Tommy Albright. Further cast members have yet to be announced.

The creative team members are Laura Bangay as musical director, Basia Bińkowska as set designer, Will Burton as casting director, Sami Fendall as costume designer, Carol Hancock as associate wigs, hair and make-up designer and supervisor, Cory Hippolyte as associate director, Hazel Holder as voice coach, Jessica Hung Han Yun as lighting designer, Nick Lidster for Autograph as sound designer, Ingrid Mackinnon as intimacy director, Ebony Molina as associate choreographer, Morag Stark as dialect coach, and Sarah Travis as music supervisor and orchestrator.

Presented by arrangement with Music Theatre International.
