Wedding Singer Auditons

April 15, 2023

The Wedding Singer takes us back to a time when hair was big, greed was good, collars were
up and a wedding singer might just be the coolest guy in the room. Based on the hit Adam
Sandler movie, The Wedding Singer’s sparkling new score does for the ’80s what Hairspray did
for the ’60s. Just say yes to the most romantic musical in twenty years.
It’s 1985, and rock star wannabe, Robbie Hart, is New Jersey’s favorite wedding singer. He’s the
life of the party until his own fiancée leaves him at the altar. Shot through the heart, Robbie
makes every wedding as disastrous as his own. Enter Julia, a winsome waitress who wins his
affection. As luck would have it, Julia is about to be married to a Wall Street shark, and, unless
Robbie can pull off the performance of a decade, the girl of his dreams will be gone forever.

The Wedding Singer features a large chorus with many featured roles for actors who sing, and
dancers who act. This show works perfectly as a high school’s featured musical or as the
highlight of any regional season.
