PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

T

hank you for joining us for the first show of our 2014-2015 season, Forever Plaid! Stuart Ross wrote Forever Plaid as an homage to the close-harmony ‘guy groups’ of the 1950’s, like The Four Aces and The Four Freshmen, who performed during a time when life seemed easier and the music made us sway. We are so pleased to bring you this walk down memory lane as we turn on our jukebox and let the harmonies flow.

This year’s season at the Grand Theatre is full of excitement. After Forever Plaid, we move on to Little Shop of Horrors starring the amazingly talented and leafy green plant Audrey II (she made me write that last part as you can see below), and we then move on to Thorton Wilder’s The Skin of Our Teeth and close with the incomparable Always…Patsy Cline.

Salt Lake Community College and the Grand Theatre have experienced tremendous expansion during the past several years. Our stunning new Center For Arts and Media brings together the latest technology and resources in digital arts education, combines the best teachers in the valley, and puts them all in one environment - sharing, creating, inspiring, and collaborating throughout its 130,000 square feet. The stage has been set for student success here at SLCC and we truly are the community’s college and our many resources - like this wonderful theatre - are here for everyone to enjoy.

Please encourage your neighbors and colleagues to join us as we present professional community theatre here at the Grand. We are glad you are here. Please enjoy the show!

A NOTE FROM THE GRAND’S DIRECTOR

A

fter years of many requests from our audience, the Grand Theatre is very excited to present to you Forever Plaid, one of the most popular and successful musicals of all time, as the opener to our 2014-2015 season. This wonderfully fun revue is chock-full of classic barbershop quartet harmonies. Squabbling boyishly over the smallest intonations and executing their charmingly outlandish choreography with over-zealous precision, the “Plaids” are guaranteed to supply you with a night of memorable entertainment. With a program of beloved songs and delightful banter, they will keep you smiling and laughing, when you’re not humming along to some of the great nostalgic pop hits of the 1950’s. We hope presenting this beloved musical “Back Stage” will give you a unique and intimate experience that a show like this was meant to have! We hope you enjoy Forever Plaid, and we look forward to seeing you back in October when we present Little Shop of Horrors!

Sincerely,

Seth Miller Interim Director

DIRECTOR’S NOTE

W

henever someone mentions the 1960’s, it typically conjures up images of hippies, war protests, assassinations, racial tensions, and sex, drugs and rock ‘n roll…but that’s not how the 1960’s started. The decade was born of the 1950’s…an era of normalcy, decorum, and good manners. People were striving to live and preserve the “American dream.” It was a time of suburban castles, meticulously packed school lunches, children in matching outfits, “please” and “thank you.” It is out of this culture that THE PLAIDS were born.

Forever Plaid takes us on a time travel journey back to this sweeter, simpler life. These four guys are true believers: in music, in dreams, and in being a “Plaid.” Their world is filled with iconic images: Perry Como, after school jobs, Ed Sullivan, Latin rhythms, high school dances, and sing-alongs. They always strive to do their best because they think that’s how the rest of the world functions, too. And they also see the glass as half full…of chocolate milk.

These guys make naivete look good!

So let them take you on a joyous excursion into lush harmonies, intoxicating melodies, sentimental lyrics, and nostalgic memories. Who knows? One of you might even become an “Honorary Plaid!”
