Get Your 80s On!






Remember when popped collars, mall bangs, hair bands and Madonna were cool? Did you morn the cancellation of the Dukes of Hazzard, or the apparent death of Bobby Ewing. Were you a fan of Prince, Tina Turner, Van Halen (before Sammy Hagar) and the Culture Club...then you are a true child of the 80s!

This season, Theater League is bringing back the 80s with the Tony® nominated Broadway hit THE WEDDING SINGER. Based on the hit film which starred Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler, THE WEDDING SINGER tells the story of lead singer and wannabe rock star Robbie Hart. He is New Jersey's favorite wedding singer, until he is left at the altar by his success-crazed, social climbing girlfriend. He falls in love with Julia, who happens to be engaged to a Wall Street womanizing hot shot. Robbie has to pull off the performance of a lifetime to get the girl before she is gone forever.


THE WEDDING SINGER celebrates the fun of the 80s and this tour is also celebrating the fun on the road. The cast is offering a great behind the scenes look at a National Broadway tour with their WEDDING SINGER BACKSTAGE PASS and is keeping fans updated on their exploits on the road with their official Facebook site.


The aspect of this show that makes it fun for the audience, is how much fun the cast is having on stage. Joy and laughter are contagious and the actors who make up the cast of THE WEDDING SINGER are definitely sharing the joy!


Catch THE WEDDING SINGER this fall when it hits the stage in Toledo, OH October 1-4 and South Bend, IN October 9-10. And watch for it later this season in Phoenix & Mesa, AZ, Santa Barbara & Thousand Oaks, CA and Wichita, KS.
