FOREVER PLAID to Open at City Theater in March

City Theater is taking a trip back in time with their next musical, Forever Plaid, opening March 8th. Known as one of the most popular and successful musicals in recent memory, Stuart Ross wrote Forever Plaid as an homage to the close harmony "guy groups" of the 1950s, like The Four Aces and The Four Freshmen. The Associated Press raved, "The laughter doesn't stop!... Delightful, original and funny!"

Forever Plaid celebrates the delightfully goofy reincarnation of four male singers killed in a car crash on their way to their first big concert and now, miraculously, revived for one last concert. Their repertoire features such iconic songs as, "Three Coins in the Fountain," "Catch a Falling Star," "Cry," "Heart and Soul," "Love is a Many-Splendored Thing" and many more. Plus, there are also wonderfully wacky numbers that include "Day-O," "Chain Gang" and even a three minute and eleven second nod to The Ed Sullivan Show.

Audiences will be swooning over the gorgeous voices of the boys of Forever Plaid. City Theater favorites Brian McAloon (Frankie), Owen White (Sparky), and Schuyler White (Jinx) and newcomer Forrest Tripp (Smudge) make up the four-man harmony group. Their boyish charm, brotherly bickering, along with quirky choreography and classic 4-part harmony deliver a show that is musical magic.

City Theater's production team includes Linda Sturdivant (Director) Patrick Martin (Music Director), Mariel Roy (Choreographer), Kristen Gilhooley (Assistant Director), Karl Carrigan (Set Designer/ Technical Director), Eli MacLean (Master Carpenter), Darnell Stuart (Costume Designer), Florence Cooley (Lighting Designer), Katie Pinard (Sound), and Greg Brackett (Stage Manager).
