Plaid Tidings is a sequel to another musical called "Forever Plaid".
Basically, these are four zany guys who like to send up dancing and singing styles from the 1950s to the 21st century.
The biggest laughs of the evening came from a Calypso (Jamaican) Christmas dance/music medley and a rap version of the poem "Twas The Night Before Christmas."
There also was a hilarious three minute version of an Ed Sullivan show.
The plot revolved around a return to Earth after death for a final Christmas show to get everyone in the holiday spirit.
They succeeded wonderfully in presenting a very different type of Christmas show than expected. Four stars.
