The Wedding Singer April 1, 2010

This musical comedy will take audiences back to a time when pastel was in, hair was big and the wedding singer was the coolest guy in the room! Based on the hit film starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore, THE WEDDING SINGER is crammed with 80s pop-culture and songs that have a familiar sound to Bon Jovi and Heart. Wannabe rock star Robbie Hart makes his living as New Jersey’s favorite wedding singer until he is left at the altar. Broken-hearted, Robbie takes out his bitterness on stage. Every wedding he plays is a disaster until a charming waitress named Julia captures his affections. The only trouble is, Julia is engaged to a successful Wall Street broker and unless Robbie can pull off the performance of his lifetime, the girl of his dreams will be gone forever. Can he win her heart before she says "I Do" or will it be too late?

The 1998 film of THE WEDDING SINGER captured hearts and grossed over $120 million nationwide. The Broadway musical opened in April of 2006, with music by Matthew Sklar, and book by Chad Beguelin and Tim Herlihy (former head-writer for “Saturday Night Live” and author of the original screenplay). It ran for 284 performances and was nominated for five Tony Awards® (including Best Musical and Best Musical Score); eight Drama Desk Awards (including Outstanding Musical, Music, and Lyrics); and three Drama League Awards. THE WEDDING SINGER has gone on to tour the United States, U.K., Europe and Japan.
