Jefferson Performing Arts Society Presents PERFECT WEDDING, Now thru 3/23

By:

Jefferson Performing Arts Society presents their final mainstage performance of their 36th season, PERFECT WEDDING by Robin Hawdon. The production is directed by Phillip A. Bensen and features Jacob McManus, Hope Leigh, Erich Abbott, Claire Speers, Lindsey M, Page, and Margeaux Fanning.

A bridegroom wakes on his wedding morning in his own bridal suite, with his bride-to-be about to arrive any moment, and finds a strange girl in bed beside him. What's more an extremely attractive girl whom, in the depths of his post stag-night hangover, he can't remotely remember even having been introduced to. Worse - during the ensuing panic to get the stranger dressed and out of the way, the bride arrives and the girl is trapped in the bathroom. The only way out of the dilemma is to persuade the best man to pretend that the hidden girl is his girlfriend. Then the problem is that the best man's real girlfriend has to be kept ignorant of the fact. By the time the bride's parents and half the hotel staff get in on the act, the chaos reaches nuclear proportions!

PERFECT WEDDING will run Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30pm and Sundays at 3:00pm, March 7-23. All shows will take place at Teatro Wego at 177 Sala Ave, Westwego, LA. For tickets, visit http://jpas.ticketforce.com/eventperformances.asp?evt=26.

Assaf and Hannah Cunningham, the Jefferson Performing Arts Society is a non-profit professional arts organization whose mission is to promote arts performance, training, and outreach by providing a diverse range of quality programs that entertain, educate and enrich the cultural and economic vitality of Jefferson Parish, Greater New Orleans and the Gulf South.
