The nonprofit historic 1885 Music Hall, in collaboration with KJK Productions, is pleased to invite 9th graders – college seniors to participate in The Wedding Singer from June 25 to August 6, 2022 at The Music Hall.
Director: Jordan Singer
The Wedding Singer takes us back to a time when hair was big, greed was good, collars were up and a wedding singer might just be the coolest guy in the room. Based on the hit Adam Sandler movie, The Wedding Singer’ssparkling new score does for the ’80s what Hairspray did for the ’60s. Just say yes to the most romantic musical in twenty years. It’s 1985, and rock star wannabe, Robbie Hart, is New Jersey’s favorite wedding singer. He’s the life of the party until his own fiancée leaves him at the altar. Shot through the heart, Robbie makes every wedding as disastrous as his own. Enter Julia, a winsome waitress who wins his affection. As luck would have it, Julia is about to be married to a Wall Street shark, and, unless Robbie can pull off the performance of a decade, the girl of his dreams will be gone forever.
