Broadway review: Schmigadoon! (★★★★) is good old-fashioned musical fun

Sara Chase and Alex Brightman lead a top-drawer cast in Cinco Paul's musical.

"younger brother" is "mother's  younger brother", in both the E.L. Doctrow novel and the musical. 

Mother’s Younger Brother grew up in Ohio with his older sister (Mother), and his father, Grandfather. A shy, sensitive, and driftless youth, he hasn’t accomplished much or found his path in life by the turn of the century. Instead of marrying or making his own way in the world, he follows Mother, Father, and Grandfather to New York, w

Really enjoyed this too.  Kelli and Rose are both hilarious and great with timing &  physical comedy.   The supporting cast also strong (less so of Consuelos or that attempt at an accent).  Great set and direction.

Could make the cut in the Best Revival category?

Oedipus, Salesman, Becky Shaw, Marjorie Prime, Bug, Fallen Angels?  Excellent season for play revivals.
