A musical adaptation of ‘The Wedding Singer’ is coming to Australia

Party like it’s 1985.

David Venn Enterprises, the entertainment company behind Bring It On The Musical, will bring the Broadway musical adaptation of The Wedding Singer to Australia for the first time this June.

Based on the 1998 Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore-starring hit film of the same name, the musical follows New Jersey’s number one wedding singer Robbie Hart as he tries to win over his soon-to-be-married dream girl, Julia.

Nominated for a Tony Award for Best Musical, The Wedding Singer has sold-out performances on Broadway and across the UK, garnering great acclaim throughout its international runs.

Now, the production will make its Australian debut in Melbourne. Featuring a book by Chad Beguelin (Aladdin) and longtime Adam Sandler collaborator Tim Herlihy (Happy GilmoreBilly MaddisonThe Wedding Singer) and music by Matthew Sklar (Elf The Musical), you can expect big hair and even bigger laughs when this heart-warming comedy comes to the stage.

The Wedding Singer makes its Australian premiere on June 19 at Athenaeum Theatre. Tickets are on sale from 11am Thursday March 5.
