Forever Plaid • June 15 – July 2
One of Off-Broadway’s most popular and critically acclaimed musicals is opening the summer season in hip four-part harmony! This rollicking revue centers on four young, eager male singers killed in a car crash in the 1950s on their way to their first big concert. They are miraculously revived for the posthumous chance to fulfill their dreams and perform the show that never was. The boys sing in the closest of harmonies while squabbling over the smallest intonations as they execute their outlandish choreography with over-zealous precision. The Plaids are a foot-tapping good time performing such great nostalgic pop hits as Love is a Many Splendored Thing, Three Coins in the Fountain, Magic Moments, Catch a Falling Star, Heart and Soul and many more.
Annie • July 20 – August 6
Leapin’ Lizards, Annie’s back! It’s been 24 years since Moonlight has presented ANNIE in its main stage season with an adult cast, an adorable company of little girls, and one cute pup. One of the world’s best-loved musicals about the comic strip heroine is a fun-filled adventure and is perfect summertime entertainment the entire family will love. Although Annie’s “hard knock life” has its challenges, this scrappy orphan refuses to let her circumstances get her down. Pretty soon this rags to riches kid captures the heart of everyone from Daddy Warbucks to Franklin Roosevelt. Boasting one of Broadway’s most memorable scores, including It’s the Hard Knock Life, Easy Street, N-Y-C, and the cheerily optimistic Tomorrow, the Tony Award-winning Annie is filled with delightful comedy and a bracing dose of optimism.
