Set in the 1950&#8217;s, four singing sisters from Muncie, Indiana are in a New York theatre making their national television debut. They sing and dance their way through nearly 40 classic tunes including hits like &#8220;Sh-Boom,&#8221; &#8220;Mister Sandman,&#8221; &#8220;Johnny Angel,&#8221; and &#8220;Where The Boys Are.&#8221; The Taffetas pays tribute to the sounds of the girl groups of the &#8216;50&#8217;s, The Maguire Sisters, The Fontaine Sisters, and the Chordettes.
