Something Rotten!

Book by Karey Kirkpatrick and John Farrell

Music and Lyrics by Karey Kirkpatrick and Wayne Kirkpatrick

Directed by Maridee Slater

Set in the 1590s, brothers Nick and Nigel Bottom are desperate to write a hit play but are stuck in the shadow of that Renaissance rock star known as "The Bard." When a local soothsayer foretells that the future of theatre involves singing, dancing and acting at the same time, Nick and Nigel set out to write the world’s very first musical. But amidst the scandalous excitement of opening night, the Bottom Brothers realize that reaching the top means being true to thine own self, and all that jazz.

Something Rotten! is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI. www.mtishows.com

THE WEDDING SINGER | FEBRUARY 24–MARCH 26, 2023

Book by Chad Beguelin and Tim Herlihy
Music by Matthew Sklar
Lyrics by Chad Beguelin
Based upon the New Line Cinema film written by Tim Herlihy
Directed by Jake Sung-Guk Sullivan

THE WEDDING SINGER centers around Robbie Hart, New Jersey’s number one wedding singer and the life of the party. That is until his own fiancée strands him at the altar. Shot through the heart, bitter and broken, Robbie begins to make every wedding as disastrous as his own until a warm-hearted waitress named Julia intervenes. When feelings become involved, trouble brews as Julia’s about to be–you guessed it–married! But her Wall Street shark of a fiancé may not be the happily ever after Julia’s always dreamed of… When she announces their plan to elope, Robbie must pull off the performance of the decade or risk losing the girl of his dreams forever.

Step back in time to when hair was big and the collars were up! Based on the Hollywood film starring Adam Sandler, THE WEDDING SINGER celebrates all the fun, love, and ridiculousness of the 80’s. With an electric soundtrack that gives nod to nostalgic hits, THE WEDDING SINGER will have you dancing down the aisle while eagerly saying “I DO!”
