BWW Reviews: FAC's FOREVER PLAID Is Nostalgic in the Best Way
by Christi Esterle - May 11, 2014
Forever Plaid has what is probably my favorite premise for a revue show: on February 9th, 1964, a close-harmony quartet called Forever Plaid is on their way to their first big show when their car crashes with a bus and all four members are killed. (The bus was transporting a group of schoolgirls to see the Beatles perform on Ed Sullivan, a symbol of the shifting music paradigm that was already rendering the Plaids' sound obsolete.) Now, years later, the alignment of the planets and other vague metaphysical forces have arranged for the group to finish their earthly business and perform their first-and last-concert before heading to the great beyond.

by BWW News Desk - May 06, 2014
25 years ago, five actors in wheelchairs were being turned away at auditions before even saying a word. "We don't have a role that you could play," they would hear. They dreamt of a place where they and others with disabilities could perform in a non-discriminatory environment.
