'The Taffetas' opens Dundalk Community Theatre's 2009-2010 season

Dundalk Community Theatre, located at CCBC: The Community College of Baltimore County, 7200 Sollers Point Road, Baltimore, opens its 2009-2010 season with "THE TAFFETAS:  A Musical Journey through the fabulous 50's," Oct. 30-Nov. 8, 2009.

It's 1950-something, and Kaye, Peggy, Cheryl & Donna, four singing sisters from Muncie, Indiana are making their national television singing debut.

"Spotlight on Music," a fictitious weekly 1950's television show on the real-life Dumont Television Network, sets the framework for an evening of some of the greatest hits of the 1950's. A tribute to the girl groups of the 1950's, THE TAFFETAS pay tribute to the sounds of The McGuire Sisters, The Fontane Sisters and The Chordettes.

Opening Off-Broadway almost two years before "Forever Plaid," THE TAFFETAS made nostalgia what it is today! Spend an hour and a half with THE TAFFETAS and their three piece band and remember what Sunday night television was like on your 12-inch black and white screen.
