"Many of us weren't around when the Four Aces, the Four Lads, the
Four Coins and the Four Freshmen first came on the scene, but the
way the four performers sing them here is a rare treat... you won't
find a better production or four better singer-comics than here at
CVLT."

One evening in 1964, The Plaids, a quartet of high-school buddies who
sang 1950s male harmony in the vein of 'The Four Freshmen' and 'The Four
Aces', were on their way to their first big performance at a local
hotel, when their car was struck by a bus-load of school girls on their
way to see The Beatles on the Ed Sullivan show. The quartet's lives and
musical careers were put to a swift and ironically metaphorical end.
Now, they've been sent back to earth to do the show that they never got
to perform!
Stuart Ross's Forever Plaid was an off-Broadway hit in 1990, which has
since become an international sensation. Chagrin Valley Little Theatre's
production features Chad Duwe as "Jinx" (the nervous tenor), Trey Gilpin
as "Sparky" (the goofball baritone), Brandon Hood as "Frankie" (the
spirited leader), and Steven R. Tiderman as "Smudge" (the meek but
earnest bass).
Chagrin Valley Little Theatre is generously funded by Cuyahoga County
residents through Cuyahoga Arts and Culture. The Ohio Arts Council
helped fund this program or organization with state tax dollars to
encourage economic growth, educational excellence and cultural
enrichment for all Ohioans.
