Town Hall Arts Center Presents Forever Plaid

The next production in Town Hall Arts Center’s 2012-2013 Season will be Forever Plaid!  This musical is directed and choreographed by Nick Sugar and has musical direction by Donna Kolpan Debreceni.

Featured in this production are Mark Middlebrooks as Francis, Barret Harper as Jinx, Jacob Villareal as Smudge and Tim Howard as Sparky.  This goofy revue centers on four young, eager, male singers killed in a car crash on the way to their first big concert in the 1950’s, and now miraculously revived for the posthumous chance to fulfill their dreams and perform the show that never was. Singing in the closest of harmony, the “Plaids” offer a program of great, nostalgic, pop hits of the 1950’s.

Sound of Music is sure to be a Holiday Favorite!

Sound of Music always brings back such fond memories, not only from young childhood cuddled up on the couch with my mom (who, like me, still leaves it on every time she comes across it on television), but from my senior year of high school. My dearest friend in the world (to this day) played Maria, and we had the best time! I was eager to see last night’s rehearsal at Town Hall, because I hadn’t see the show staged since then, and I was thrilled at how well it has all come together. You can’t help but sing along to the songs, and the shows most prominent message still resonates in practically any situation.

So, I will leave you with some great footage shot last night by our new film intern, Alec Williams! Enjoy (and get your tickets)!
