The Wedding Singer
Synopsis
Book by Chad Beguelin & Tim Herlihy
Music by Matthew Sklar
Lyrics by Chad Beguelin
Based on the 1998 movie, but with an original score, the musical, just like the film, revolves around wedding singer Robbie, his failed relationship with his former fiancee and his romance with new love Julia. It made its Broadway debut in 2006 and scored numerous Tony Award and Drama Desk Award nominations.
