THE WEDDING SINGER Croons at Old Log Theatre, Beginning Tonight

THE WEDDING SINGER will have you laughing all the way down the aisle. This hit romantic comedy, based on the 1998 Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore film is coming to the Old Log Theatre tonight, November 7 and running through February 20, 2016. This musical celebrates songs of the 80's, pop culture references and of course big hair!

This highly acclaimed musical comedy has received five Tony Award nominations including "Best Musical," eight Drama Desk Award nominations including "Outstanding Music" and three Drama League Award nominations including "Distinguished Production of a Musical."

The play is about wannabe rock star Robbie Hart who puts on an awesome show as everyone's favorite wedding singer. He's the life of the party until he gets stood up at the altar. He is miserable and vows to make every wedding as disastrous as his own. Things are taking a bad turn for Robbie until he meets Julia Sullivan, a sweet waitress who wins his heart - but she's already engaged to a Wall Street shark! This 80's musical will make you laugh out loud as you watch Robbie's life and his fight to win over his new heartthrob.
