Show Details

"Forever Plaid" centers on four young, eager male singers killed in a car crash in the 1950s on the way to their first big concert. Now, they have been miraculously revived for the posthumous chance to fulfill their dreams, and perform the show that never was. Singing in the closest of harmony, squabbling boyishly over the smallest intonations, and executing their charmingly outlandish choreography with over-zealous precision, the "Plaids" offer a selection of classic '50s pop hits, including "Catch a Falling Star," "Day-O" and "Sixteen Tons."
