Studio Theatre Worcester returns following their success of Proof with a heartfelt, visceral production of Bryna Turner's play At the Wedding, winner of the Blanche and Irving Laurie Foundation Theatre Visions Award and a NY Times Critic's Pick. SYNOPSIS: You are cordially invited to the best day of someone else's life... but what if it's also the worst day of yours? Join Carlo (alongside a colorful cast of characters) as she attempts to make it through the night without drinking too much, talking too much, or trying to win back the bride. Bryna Turner's bittersweet play, a laugh-out-loud comedy that nonetheless addresses some big issues, is for anyone who has ever attended a wedding... or had their heart broken.
