Well, Rath, I'd have to say it WAS real.

Real people lived there going about their lives in a normal fashion.

You're getting VERY close, though!!!

(I guess you could say it WAS a fictional town because it doesn't really exist, but that's not the answer we're going for here. Try and be a TAD more specific!) :)

KMF,

You are TOTALLY correct! BRIGADOON was a story about a village that appeared only once every 100 years.

Interesting Note: When the show first opened, many theater critics complained that that Alan Jay Lerner "lifted" the whole BRIGADOON plot from a German short story, "Germelhausen." [which does tell a VERY similar story.] Lerner pleaded "The Long Arm of Coincidence" and the matter was ultimately dropped.

Now, KMF, for your bonus points: Please tell us the hit song that emerged from BRIGADOON.

Once again, you are TOTALLY correct!

And your prize: An all-expense paid trip to visit Brigadoon the next time it appears--in 2047!!!


THANKS for playing, Everybody!


Have a Trivial Day!!!
