Drury Lane Theatre Announces Casting For FOREVER PLAID, Running September 17 - November 7

Celebrate the return of live theater at Drury Lane with audience favorite Forever Plaid. A delightful revue packed with 1950s barbershop flare, Forever Plaid was originally written, directed, and choreographed by Stuart Ross, with musical continuity supervision and arrangements by James Raitt, and originally produced by Gene Wolsk.
