1950-something, and Kaye, Peggy, Cheryl and Donna, four singing sisters from
Muncie, Indiana are making their national television singing debut.
"Spotlight on Music," a fictitious weekly 1950's television show on
the real-life Dumont Television Network, sets the framework for an evening of
some of the greatest hits of the 1950's. A tribute to the girl groups of the
1950's, <b><i>The Taffeta’s</i></b> pay tribute to the sounds of The
McGuire Sisters, The Fontaine Sisters and The Chordettes. Opening Off-Broadway
almost two years before "Forever Plaid," THE TAFFETAS made nostalgia
what it is today! Spend the evening with <b><i>The Taffeta’s</i></b> and
remember what Sunday night television was like on your 12-inch black and white
screen! <o:p></o:p></span></p>
