We've fallen in love with Scotland this summer, and we want to show you why. On the final weekend of Brigadoon at the SCERA Shell Outdoor Theatre, we talk to director Jerry Elison, stage manager Julie Bonifay, and actors Vince Abbott and Caroline Glissmeyer. We also spent some time with SCERA performer Erika Bestor, who tells us why SCERA is such a special place to her and her family, why Jerry Elison is like another grandpa, and how the arts can be a perfect fit for someone with tough physical challenges.

Then we take it inside to talk with Shawn Mortensen and Kelsey Mariner about their recent performing trip to Scotland's Fringe festival.

So grab your Scottish shortbread cookies, and enjoy some arts talk at the end of a long week! And scroll below for photos of today's guests!
