Review: Forever Plaid @ 42nd Street Moon
Forever Plaid, an Off-Broadway musical revue written in the late eighties by Stuart Ross, takes place in the in-between, or whatever exists between this life and the next. The Plaids, a prototypical guy group in appearance, harmonies and temperament, find themselves dead right at the top of the show. But, they have been given an opportunity to perform all of their favorite songs one last time. We, the audience 60 years in the future, are along for the ride which celebrates the legacy of the spotless, often White “guy groups” of the 1950s.
