Forever Young joins five best friends in a music-filled suburban basement. Upon arrival, they reveal their parent's eclectic record collection; one that’s filled with the greatest hits of all time. One-by-one they introduce themselves and the music that changed their lives forever.

From there, this multi-talented cast takes the audience back to the moments when the music they found was all that really mattered. After meeting each cast member and the music that shaped them, we go even farther back to their high school years where they share the hits that taught them how to love. Next, their story continues as they step out of their youth and into a world of uncertainty.

In Act 2 we follow the guys into the lives they lived after leaving their music-filled basement. First, we join a Las Vegas crooner doing his best to make it on the stages where Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Tony Bennet sipped whiskey and taught the world to fall in love. Next, we join a home-sick athlete struggling with stepping out of his small town and trying to make it as a professional baseball player. From there we meet a hard-working man with dreams of leaving investment banking behind with the hopes of stepping out from behind his desk and onto a rocking’ country stage. Then we join another cast member who sails away aboard a cruise ship, only to find the high seas aren’t half as good as the places and friends he’s left behind. And finally, we meet a disillusioned student who decides to quit school and travel the world, only to find out that running away is just the inspiration he needs to bring the band back together.
