FHS Musical 56 Years Strong
History of Brigadoon
Produced 1969, 1984, 2009, 2024
Brigadoon, 1969 – The first show Brigadoon, with a cast of 53, played on a Thursday and Friday night in late March, to standing room only crowds. Remember, the auditorium only seated about 275. Due to demand, we added a performance on Monday night. Bette Hopper was the accompanist; the parents built the sets made of 1×4’s and cardboard boxes, and the art teacher, Glenna Colopy, and her students helped paint sets. We did not have dressing rooms inside the auditorium, so the students had to dash out to the home economics building for changes.
