The year is 1985. The place is New Jersey. A wannabe rock star (aka a professional wedding singer) is left at the altar and finally changes his tune.
Sept. 24, 2025 – Oct. 05, 2025
The Wedding Singer is a high-energy, feel-good musical comedy that takes you straight back to the big hair and bigger emotions of the 1980s. Robbie Hart is the ultimate wedding entertainer—charming, talented, and totally devoted to love—until his own fiancée leaves him at the altar. Heartbroken and bitter, Robbie starts sabotaging every wedding he plays… until he meets Julia, a kind and quirky waitress dreaming of her perfect wedding day. The only problem? She’s engaged to a slick Wall Street jerk who’s more interested in money than romance. As Robbie and Julia grow closer, miscommunications, mayhem, and music ensue in this hilarious and heartfelt journey toward true love. With catchy songs, over-the-top ’80s fashion, and nonstop laughs, The Wedding Singer is a celebration of love, second chances, and finding the right person when you least expect it.
