THE WEDDING SINGER: A Drinking Game-Minnesota 10th Anniversary Show!

Let's celebrate! It's the 10th Anniversary of A DRINKING GAME-MINNESOTA!
So we're celebrating by giving you the show YOU, our audience, chose in our 2020 March Madness Audience Choice Tournament before the entire world went to Hell, and our most recent virtual show: that 1990's movie set in the 1980's; THE WEDDING SINGER!

Produced by Shadow Horse Theatre & sponsored by Bent Brewstillery.

Watch some of the Twin Cities finest performers, comedians, and improvisers perform a live stage-reading of this beloved rom-com with props, costumes, amazing 80's music, fight and dance choreography (yes, its true!) and, of course, DRINKING!

It's 1985 and if you're getting married in Ridgefield, NJ then to make sure your wedding reception is rocking, you want Robbie Hart to be your wedding singer! He's got the skills and the belief in the power of weddings and love. Unfortunately, he's left standing at the altar on his own wedding day, breaking that spirit and his heart. Convinced by his friends to go back to work, Robbie befriends Julia Sullivan, a waitress who works at the reception hall where he sings, and who is about to marry jerky junk bond salesman Glenn Guglia. As Robbie helps Julia plan for her wedding, they begin to fall for each other, and Robbie realizes that if either of them are ever going to be happy, he's going to have to rediscover his belief in himself, his love for music, and believe in love again. THE WEDDING SINGER kickstarted nostalgia for the 80's and the amazing music it inspired, as well as a Tony Award nominated Broadway musical, becoming a favorite of rom-can fans.
