The contest, part of a commemoration of the 20th anniversary of the Off-Broadway musical “Forever Plaid,” gave singing groups nationwide the chance to be featured during the Forever Plaid 20th Anniversary Special on July 9 at 8 p.m., which will be broadcast to 375 movie theaters across the country, including two theaters in the San Jose area: CineArts Santana Row 6 and AMC Eastridge Mall 15. The group’s performance will also be included as a special feature in the “Forever Plaid” DVD.
