The Wedding Singer? That’s a new one for Cedar City audiences. Cedar Valley Community Theatre’s latest production is a fresh and exciting opportunity to see a show that is uncommon for the area. Based on the hit motion picture of the same name, The Wedding Singer allows its audience to take a trip to another time and to leave its own worries and cares at the door for a couple of hours. The curtain rose at the top of the show to reveal the characters already dancing to the rock-themed music being conducted by Carylee Zwang. That high energy remained onstage for the duration of the performance.
The show stars Cedar City favorite Reece Brown as Robbie, who is trying to find true love for himself while serenading those who have already found it at their own weddings. After he is left at the altar and with a bleak outlook on life, dating and happiness, he enlists the help of his band (played by Indy Jones and Trevor Walker) and two caterers (Emilee Gull and Kelsea Burton) to get himself out of the dumpster and on the track to success.
Kelsea Burton as Holly played her part with so much energy and charisma that it wasn’t a surprise when she is doused with water at the end of the first act. Austin Strine as Glen Guglia portrays the antagonist with such finesse that I wanted to get up and slap him myself. Everyone in the cast is completely committed to their characters and it is clear they understand that ensemble cohesiveness is the key to making a show like this successful. The show is directed by Stephen Wagner and choreographed by Torri Adams, who create a fast and exciting show that puts its audience on the edge of their seats wanting more right up to curtain call.
Cedar City is home to lots of theatres, most of whom have chosen to do dramatic works during this part of the season. The Wedding Singer is comedic, lively and brilliantly acted. It really is a bright spot in the community during this cold winter. I would recommend sitting close to the stage; the mics have a tendency to come on late at the top of scenes. There is some mild language and sexual content and may not be appropriate for small children. It’s basically the same as seeing an Adam Sandler movie. If you’re okay with that, you’ll enjoy this. The show continues February 1, 5, 6, and 8 at the Heritage Theatre and starts at 7:30 PM. Tickets are $12.00.
