The Picador The Wedding Singer Takes Audience Back to the Eighties By Monique Devine It's 1985 and Robbie Hart is New Jersey's favorite wedding singer! If you've seen the movie, you know the story! The Wedding Singer was originally a 1998 romantic comedy film written by Tim Herlihy and directed by Frank Coraci. Adam Sandler starred as a wedding singer in the 1980s and Drew Barrymore as a waitress with whom he falls in love. The film was later adapted into a stage musical with the same title. It debuted on Broadway in April 2006 and closed on New Year's Eve of that same year. This weekend Holderness students will perform the musical version of this funny but sweet love story of Robbie Hart and Julia Sullivan! The show boasts music that plays homage to the pop songs of the 1980's and dance numbers, choreographed by Ms. McDonough. The Wedding Singer will take you back to the days when hair was big, greed was good, collars were popped, and fashion included parachute pants! In Holderness School's own version of this show, Connor Smith, So Hee Park, Josh Nungesser, Salamarie Frazier, Brian Tierney, Axi Berman and a host of other actors take the stage to bring this off-beat romantic comedy to life. Get your 80's attitude on and join us at the Touch-of-Class Wedding Hall on Friday night at 8:00PM. Enjoy the show!
