Rehearsing in the basement of Smudge's family's plumbing supply company, they became "Forever Plaid". On the way to their first big gig, the "Plaids" are slammed broadside by a school bus and killed instantly.

Singing in close harmony, squabbling boyishly over the smallest intonations, and executing their charmingly outlandish choreography with over-zealous precision, the "Plaids" are a guaranteed smash, with a program of beloved songs and delightful patter that keeps audiences rolling in the aisles when they're not humming along to some of the great nostalgic pop hits of the 1950's. </span><span style="line-height: 18.93px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"></span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; color: rgb(68, 68, 68); line-height: 21.29px; font-size: 15px;"><b style="line-height: 21.29px;"><span style="color: black; line-height: 18.93px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </span></b></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; color: rgb(68, 68, 68); line-height: 21.29px; font-size: 15px;"><b style="line-height: 21.29px;"><span style="color: black; line-height: 18.93px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Character Breakdown:</span></b></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; color: rgb(68, 68, 68); line-height: 21.29px; font-size: 15px;"><b style="line-height: 21.29px;"><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 18.93px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Francis</span></b><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 18.93px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">: The leader and caretaker of the group.

We learn about the highs and lows the girls have experienced in the past decade and are charmed to find that no matter what life throws their way, they will conquer it together.

She knows she will be named Prom Queen and acts out against her best friend Betty Jean when things don’t go her way. She makes the biggest change between Act 1 & 2, having learned the lessons of true love and loss. Range: Mezzo-Soprano Belt: E3–F5. Sings melody line on most songs, so the other girls hang their vocals on this voice. Among the songs she sings lead are: ‘Allegheny Moon,’ ‘Son of a Preacher Man,’ and ‘Maybe’.</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; color: rgb(68, 68, 68); line-height: 21.29px; font-size: 15px;"><b style="line-height: 21.29px;"><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 18.93px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Missy</span></b><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 18.93px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">: is the over-achiever of the group. Very controlled, very concerned that everything at the prom turns out wonderful and perfect. Head of the prom decorations committee; and absolutely smitten with her music teacher. Her best friend is Suzy. Range: Soprano: G3–A5. Wide range, floating high vocals and belting throughout the show. Among the songs she sings lead are: ‘Secret Love,’ ‘You Don’t Own Me,’ and ‘Wedding Bell Blues’.</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; color: rgb(68, 68, 68); line-height: 21.29px; font-size: 15px;"><b style="line-height: 21.29px;"><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 18.93px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Betty Jean</span></b><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 18.93px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">: is the class clown, tomboy, always vying for attention with Cindy Lou, her best friend. It’s also highly probable that Betty Jean wants to be with Cindy Lou herself, but just doesn’t even know what those feelings really are. Cindy Lou steals Betty Jean’s boyfriend away, which causes a lot of the friction at the prom. She holds this grudge against Cindy Lou until they make up at the 10-year reunion. Range: Alto with strong low range: D3–E5. Among the songs she sings lead are: ‘Lipstick on Your Collar,’ ‘I Only Want To Be With You,’ and ‘That’s When The Tears Start.”</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; color: rgb(68, 68, 68); line-height: 21.29px; font-size: 15px;"><b style="line-height: 21.29px;"><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 18.93px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Suzy</span></b><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 18.93px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">: is the gum-chewing, happy-go-lucky, go-along girl. Super-best friends with Missy, Suzy is always a little giddy and a little silly, and finds great pleasure in everything she does. In love with the lighting operator, completely surprised when named prom queen. Frustrated, sad, hormonal, and pregnant in Act 2. This role requires an excellent part singer and expert comedienne. Range: Mezzo-Alto with both sweet and soulful voice: G3–E5. Among the songs she sings lead are: ‘Stupid Cupid,’ ‘Hold Me, Thrill Me,’ and ‘Rescue Me’.</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; color: rgb(68, 68, 68); line-height: 21.29px; font-size: 15px;"><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 18.93px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; color: rgb(68, 68, 68); line-height: 21.29px; font-size: 15px;"><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 18.93px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">If you have any questions please email the Director: Brian Avery- </span><a style="color: rgb(0, 104, 207); line-height: 21.29px; cursor: pointer;" href="mailto:Music1504@hotmail.com" target="_blank"><span style="line-height: 18.93px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Music1504@hotmail.com</span></a><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 18.93px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"> </span></p><div><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 18.93px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><br></span></div> </div>
