The year is 1985 and the place is New Jersey when a wannabe rock star (professional wedding singer) is left at the alter and finally changes his tune. 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 score does for the ’80s what Hairspray did for the ’60s. Just say yes to the most romantic musical in 20 years.
Characters for the auditions on Tuesday 3rd December are;
