Forever Plaid

Forever Plaid at Drury Lane Theatre Oakbrook Terrace

Why see Forever Plaid?

A Nostalgic Treat

Like Jersey Boys minus the strong language and crushing pressures of fame, Forever Plaid is an altogether lighter jukebox musical. The story begins on a rainy night in 1960 when fresh-faced barbershop quartet The Plaids are all killed in a tragic car crash on their way to their first-ever gig. But never fear, because The Plaids are allowed to return from the afterlife to put on one final, dazzling show!

Striking a great balance between hit songs and witty patter between the charcters, Forever Plaid is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser, especially for fans of music from the 1950s and 60s. Among the musicals numbers are: 'Rags To Riches', 'Love is a Many Splendored Thing', 'Catch A Falling Star', 'Three Coins In A Fountain'.

Saturday at Drury Lane

Forever Plaid is packed with what we love about live theater. Engaging personalities, great talent and an hour and a half of suspended reality. The songs were “oldies” but the production was present day. The gags were great, the harmony right on. Great voices, great actors. Looking forward to seeing them again their next time at Drury Lane👍❤️ ... Read more

Outstanding!

The group of four interacted very well. Each gave something to the performance. Two put a lot into their part with emotion and movement. I enjoyed the music, singing voices, and was happy that I was at the play. ... Read more
