Sentence:
“Schmigadoon!,” a musical comedy that lovingly spoofs the genre by imagining a bickering couple trapped in a fantastical village whose residents keep bursting into song, won the coveted Tony Award for best new musical on Sunday night.
《Schmigadoon!》是一部音樂喜劇，故事講述一對正在吵架的情侶被困在一條奇幻村莊裡，而村民不斷突然唱起歌來。這部作品以充滿愛意的方式戲仿音樂劇這個類型，並在星期日晚上贏得備受矚目的東尼獎最佳新音樂劇獎。
Answer:
The part “a musical comedy that lovingly spoofs the genre by imagining a bickering couple trapped in a fantastical village whose residents keep bursting into song” is a long “hidden” non-restrictive relative clause that allows the writer to pack more adjectival description into the noun “Schmigadoon.”
Originally, the relative clause is:
“Schmigadoon!,” which is a musical comedy…..,
However, the writer omits the “which is” -- which he can do because the relative pronoun “which” (standing for “Schmigadoon") is the subject of the relative clause, and finite verb is “is” -- to make this long relative clause appear less lengthy and less “repetitive.”
Within this relative clause layer, there are actually two further internal relative clauses -- “that lovingly spoofs the genre by imagining a bickering couple trapped in a fantastical village whose residents keep bursting into song” (modifying “a musical comedy”) and “whose residents keep bursting into song” (modifying “a fantastical village”) -- so it is stylistically a good idea for the writer to omit the “which is” on the outermost layer to make the internal layers less cumbersome.
答案：
「A musical comedy that lovingly spoofs the genre by imagining a bickering couple trapped in a fantastical village whose residents keep bursting into song」這個部分，是一個很長的「隱藏」非必須關係子句，讓作者可以將更多形容詞性描述加進名詞「Schmigadoon」入面去形容它。
原本，這個關係子句是：
“Schmigadoon!,” which is a musical comedy…..,
不過，作者省略了「which is」——這是可以的，因為關係代名詞「which」（代表「Schmigadoon」的關係代名詞）是這個關係子句中的主語，而限定動詞是「is」——令這個很長的關係子句看起來沒有那麼冗長，也沒有那麼「重複」。
在這一層關係子句入面，其實還有另外兩個內層關係子句——「that lovingly spoofs the genre by imagining a bickering couple trapped in a fantastical village whose residents keep bursting into song」（修飾「a musical comedy」）和「whose residents keep bursting into song」（修飾「a fantastical village」）——所以，在風格上，作者省略最外層的「which is」是一個很好的選擇，可以令入面的多層結構顯得沒有那麼笨重。
