Sussex Academy HS to present ‘The Wedding Singer’ April 29-30

Sussex Academy High School students will present the musical comedy “The Wedding Singer” with performances at 7 p.m., Friday, April 29, and 2 and 7 p.m., Saturday, April 30, in the school auditorium, 21150 Airport Road, Georgetown.

“The Wedding Singer” is a musical comedy based on the 1998 film of the same name starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore. The show follows Robbie Hart through the ups and downs of being a wedding singer during a time when hair was big and music was booming. When he is left by his fiancée at the altar, he tries to make every wedding as horrible as his was until Julia Sullivan, a waitress, wins Robbie’s heart. But, as luck would have it, Julia is engaged to a big-shot businessman. If Robbie doesn’t pull it together soon, his dream girl will be gone forever. 

Tickets for “The Wedding Singer” cost $10 per adult and $5 per student, and can be purchased at the door or online at showtix4u.com. A recorded performance of the show will be streamed the following weekend; see details at showtix4u.com.
