Get out those shoulder pads, big hair-dos and fluoro colours – a stage production of The Wedding Singer is about to transport you through time to the 1980s at Limelight Theatre.

Based on the 1998 movie but with an original score, directors Jen Edwards and David Nelson are bringing the upbeat musical to life with more than 30 performers ready to deliver plenty of ’80s kitsch and retro clichés.

The musical, just like the film, revolves around wedding singer Robbie, his failed relationship with his former fiancée and his romance with new love Julia. It made its Broadway debut in 2006 and scored numerous Tony Award and Drama Desk Award nominations.
