May 30 - Jun 17
Forever Plaid - Theater By The Sea. One of the most popular and successful musicals in recent memory, this deliciously goofy revue centers on four young, eager male singers killed in a car crash in the 1950s on the way to their first big concert. Miraculously they are revived for the posthumous chance to fulfill their dreams and perform the show that never was. The “Plaids” sing great nostalgic pop hits of the ‘50s in the closest of harmony, squabble boyishly over the smallest intonations, and execute charmingly outlandish choreography with over-zealous precision. Songs includes, “Heart and Soul,” “Three Coins in a Fountain,” “16 Tons,” and many others.Location: Theatre By The Sea 364 Cards Pond Road Matunuck, RI Contact: 401-782-TKTS (8587)

May 18 - Jun 10
"The Hallelujah Girls" Granite Theatre. Hilarity abounds when the feisty females of Eden Falls, Georgia, decide to shake up their lives. The action in this rollicking Southern comedy takes place in the spa where a group of friends gathers every Friday afternoon. After the loss of a dear friend, the women realize time is precious, and if they're going to achieve their dreams, they have to get on it now! But Sugar Lee has her hands full keeping the women motivated. Carlene's given up on romance, having buried three husbands. Nita's a nervous wreck from her problematic son and his probation officer. Mavis' marriage is so stagnant she's wondering how she can fake her own death to get out of it. The comic tension mounts when a sexy ex-boyfriend shows up unexpectedly and Sugar Lee's arch rival vows she'll stop at nothing to steal the spa away from her. It's a side-splitting, joyful comedy that will make you laugh out loud and shout "Hallelujah!" From the same trio that brought you THE DIXIE SWIM CLUB.Location: Granite Theatre One Granite Street Westerly, RI. Contact: 401-596-2341
