Teen Actors Needed for "The Wedding Singer" Show
Looking for performers ages 15 and up for "The Wedding Singer" Show. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: 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. Only trouble is, Julia is about to be married to a Wall Street shark, and unless Robbie can pull off the performance of the decade, the girl of his dreams will be gone forever. With a score that pays loving homage to the pop songs of the 1980s, 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 have been the coolest guy in the room.
