Broadway in Lima - Forever PlaidThursday, January 20, 2011.
7:30 p.m.
Location: Veterans' Memorial Civic & Convention Center.
Forever Plaid - a musical comedy, is an affectionate revue of the close-harmony "guy groups" (e.g. The Four Aces, The Four Freshmen) that reached the height of their popularity during the 1950s. Personifying the clean-cut genre are the Plaids. This quartet of high-school chums' earnest dreams of recording an album ended in death (literally and indeed, symbolically) in a collision with a bus filled with Catholic schoolgirls on their way to see the Beatles' American debut on The Ed Sullivan Show.
The play begins with the Plaids returning from the afterlife for one final chance at musical glory. Some of the songs they sing during the course of the musical include: "Three Coins in the Fountain"; "Undecided"; "Moments to Remember"; "No, Not Much"; "Heart and Soul"; and "Love is a Many-Splendored Thing."
Ticket cost:
Single ticket: $45.00.
Broadway in Lima 4-show series: $190.00.
