Mike Bartlett's new one-act play, Bull, deals with a very contemporary problem - when redundancies have to be made, how far would you go to save your skin?
This was not my first venture into the world of "Plaid" - I have seen the show over a dozen times over the past two decades, have directed it on multiple occasions and have the book and score pretty well etched on my brain. However, I will say that it was one of the best PLAID productions I have ever seen and, if you are in the vicinity of Palm Desert and The McCallum Theatre, it is not to be missed. FOREVER PLAID is really a near-perfect little musical with a wonderful score of 50's standards and clever dialogue and comedic bits that never grow old, if executed well. This incarnation of PLAIDS - Roger Befelor, Stan Chandler, David Engel and David Humphrey did just that. (Both Chandler and Engel starred in the original Off-Broadway production). The program gave no credit to a director, only that it was originally directed and choreographed by Stuart Ross, but whomever was at the helm delivered a spot on production!
The hilariously charming hit musical Forever Plaid will take you on a trip to the fifties with Sparky, Jinx, Smudge and Frankie, a fictional 1950's boy band.

Forever Plaid will run now through February 6th. Check out highlights from the production in the video below!

Long before the "boy-band" of the 80's and 90's there was the close-harmony 'guy groups' that reached the height of their popularity during the 1950s. FOREVER PLAID is an affectionate musical homage to this time period. The production will play the Terrace Playhouse in Ogden, UT, now through February 9, 2013 on Friday, Saturday and Monday evenings.
