Civic MainStage Presents...


The Taffetas

September 10 - 26

Special Thursday performance on September 23

It's 1950-something, and Kaye, Peggy, Cheryl and Donna, four singing sisters from Muncie, Indiana are making their national television singing debut. "Spotlight on Music," a fictitious weekly 1950's television show on the real-life Dumont Television Network, sets the framework for an evening of some of the greatest hits of the 1950's. A tribute to the girl groups of the 1950's, The Taffetas pay tribute to the sounds of The McGuire Sisters, The Fontane Sisters and The Chordettes. Opening Off-Broadway almost two years before "Forever Plaid," The Taffetas made nostalgia what it is today! Spend an hour and a half with The Taffetas and their three piece band and remember what Sunday night television was like on your 12-inch black and white screen!
