FOREVER PLAID Highlights 2013 Casa Manana Gala Tonight

The off-Broadway hit is back in town for a limited engagement at Casa Mañana as part of the 2013 Casa Mañana Gala. Tickets are on sale now.

Four heavenly voices unite for a concert they were never able to give in this off-Broadway musical revue that's been pleasing audiences around the world for over 20 years. This deliciously goofy revue centers around four male singers on the way to their first big concert when an accident occurs and their plans are halted. Singing in the closest of harmony, their charming, outlandish choreography with over-zealous precision will have the audience rolling in the aisles when they're not humming along to some of the great nostalgic pop hits of the 1950s.

Casa Mañana's production of Forever Plaid stars four veterans of the Plaid family: Chris Crouch as Frankie; J.D. Daw as Jinx; Joe Domencic as Smudge; and Marcus Stevens as Sparky.

Casa Mañana's production of Forever Plaid is directed and choreographed by Guy Stroman. Mr. Stroman last directed the Casa Mañana productions ofAlways...Patsy Cline (starring Sally Struthers and Julie Johnson) and Steel Magnolias (starring Sandy Duncan) among several other Casa productions. Mr. Stroman is a native North Texan and a graduate of Texas Christian University. Mr. Stroman is also one of the original creators of Forever Plaid and starred in the original cast 20 years ago. Steven Freeman will serve as musical director.

Forever Plaid is presented as the 2013 Casa Mañana Gala to benefit the children's education and outreach programs at Casa. The Gala performance is tonight, May 31st.
