Dexter's Encore Musical Theatre Kicks-Off Holiday Season with 'Plaid Tidings'

The Encore Musical Theatre will present the heartwarming and hilarious holiday show Plaid Tidings beginning Nov. 24.

A special holiday edition of Forever Plaid, Plaid Tidings marks the return of Sparky, Jinx, Smudge, and Frankie, a teenage singing group who’ve been sent down to earth by Rosemary Clooney to put a little harmony into a discordant world.

Plaid Tidings stars Sebastian Gerstner, Rusty Mewha, Kevin Rose, and Brian Thibault. This Plaid-tastic sequel combines all your favorite 1950s songs, and sprinkled among the Christmas offerings are audience favorites like the Plaid's riotous three minute version of “The Ed Sullivan Show” - this time featuring the Rockettes, the Chipmunks and The Vienna Boys Choir, and a Plaid Caribbean Christmas which puts the “Day-O” in Excelsis!

This truly lovely holiday treat will lift audiences' spirits and remind audiences that not all good music has to be auto-tuned.

Tickets may be purchased by calling the box office at 734-268-6200. The box office is open Tuesday through Friday from 2-6 p.m. Tickets can also be purchased online at www.theencoretheatre.org.

Special events for this show include two preview shows on Nov. 23 at 8 p.m., and Nov. 24 at 3 p.m. Tickets are $18. There will also be an opening night party on Nov. 24 at 8 p.m., and a "Winter Wonderland Party" full of surprises on Dec. 21 at 8 p.m.
