    Join Derby Dinner for a performance of Plaid Tidings alongside a celebration of the New Year.  

    The night will begin at 6 p.m. with a buffet featuring prime rib and continue with the Plaid Tidings performance.  Following the performance, dancing and a celebration will take place.  After the clock strikes midnight, a breakfast buffet will commence.

    Derby Dinner Playhouse is located at 525 Marriott Drive in Clarksville, IN.  

    Packages for the night begin at $80 without hotel reservations and $250 with hotel included.  More information can be found at the Derby Dinner website or by calling 812-288-8281.  

    Plaid Tidings is essentially a sequel to Forever Plaid, featuring a reincarnation of four male singers who sang 50s pop classics.  Plaid Tidings features the same four singers, who are sent back down to Earth and told (via a phone call from Rosemary Clooney) to put on a Christmas special.  

    Musical numbers include holiday classics like Let It Snow, a Jingle Bell melody, and Twuz the Nite B4.  The singers will also take part in an extremely-shortened version of The Ed Sullivan Show.  

    The Plaid Tidings cast features Nicholas Mason as Frankie, Matthew Brennan as Sparky, John T. Lynes as Jinx, and Matthew Bryan Feld as Smudge.  Lee Buckholz directed the production, Scott Bradley was musical director, and Megan Muller served as choreographer.
