In an art-meets-life moment, Lindsie VanWinkle-Guthrie, theatre veteran and owner of Found Love Bridal Consignment in Yukon, Oklahoma will play Linda, the overbearing mother with a secret: "There are so many competing agendas in planning a wedding, it's the perfect setting for a raucous musical comedy."
Kelsey Griswold, a former Miss Oklahoma and Director of Arts Education for the Poteet Theatre, is excited to see new work coming to Oklahoma City: "It really takes a lot of time and collaboration to develop new work, and it's great to see people recognizing the deep talent that we have right here in Oklahoma City."

SUMMARY: After a surprise proposal from her boyfriend, Ashley's family and friends rush to plan the wedding of their dreams. But with the wedding day here, the bride still hasn't picked a dress. Mom micromanages, bridesmaids get drunk, and family secrets spill out -- all while a local reporter tries to cover every twist and turn. With a score pulling from pop, rock, R&B and country, it's all leading up to a big, beautiful -- and expensive -- wedding! But will they say Yes? Yes! the Musical is a funny and emotional thrill ride about the joys and challenges of love -- and the power of saying Yes: to yourself, to life, and maybe even a dress.
