Forever Plaid at Music Theatre of Idaho

One of the most popular and successful musicals in recent memory, this deliciously goofy revue centers on four young, eager male singers killed in a car crash in the 1950s on the way to their first big concert, and now 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” will have you rolling in the aisles when you’re not humming along to some of the great nostalgic pop hits of the ’50s, including Three Coins in a Fountain, No Not Much, Chain Gang, Catch a Falling Star, and many more.
