Hey, I just wanted to bump this thread up to see if anybody has any more info about the Wedding Singer tour (cast, dates, etc.)
Also, this is the post that makes me a Broadway Legend, so I figured it might as well be on this thread, which I've spent a lot of my broadwayworld-time posting on.

Just here missing the wedding singer...any news or updates??
-Amanda*
I know it's going to be the second show in Louisville's 2007-08 season.
It's in Columbus January 1-6, 2008.
Now it better come to Pittsburgh (along with Avenue Q and Sweeney Todd!) or else I'm gonna have to do some travelling!
Oh! And I just found out! Stephen Lynch is coming to the Byham Theater in Pittsburgh!
I let someone listen to the recording last night actually and they loved it. Too bad they never got to see it...
aww just seeing this thread makes me sad. I want my wedding singer back!
Congratulations to Robyn Hurder for getting cast as Marty in the upcoming GREASE revival this summer!
And apparently Matt Saldivar is Kenickie? That may be a rumor.
But congrats all around.
Wow Congrats to her!
Now I guess I have to go see Grease!

Guess I should check this thread more often...I thought it died, not that I wanted it to!!!
Major congrats to Matt Saldivar, he'll be great in whatever he does.
Oh! And I just found out! Stephen Lynch is coming to the Byham Theater in Pittsburgh!
I'm going to be at this show!! Row N, but whatever, as long as I'm there and get to hear the new songs and see how Joberg is as a musical comedian, I'm good.
Damn! I was hoping I wouldn't have to go see Grease.
"Damn! I was hoping I wouldn't have to go see Grease."
Haha, me too. Then I found out that Robyn and Christina were going to be in it so I would have to see it. And then now Matt's in it? Wow. :)

my thoughts exactly. i was NOT going to go see it then I found out Christina would be in it as ensemble and I now cannot wait to see it. The Robyn and Matthew news is even better!
Aww, I've missed this thread.
But yes, Christina is in the ensemble and the u/s for three roles (Frenchie, Jan, and Mrs. Lynch -- har, har). Then there's Matt and Robyn, too! I'm rather excited.
I haven't heard about anyone else from the cast, though. I know Felicia and Kevin Kern did a reading of a new musical called "You Don't Know Jack" not too long ago. A friend of mine went and said it was absolutely hilarious. Kevin and Felicia played Jack and Jill (respectively), from the nursery rhyme.
It's no longer a rumor!
Matthew is confirmed as Kenickie.

....I was hoping to see Grease, not The Wedding Singer again!
Good that they all got jobs so quickly.
Am I the only one who thinks Tina Maddigan should cover Sandy?
Who knows, Yankee?
You may have hit the nail on the head.
I know the show is closed and all and bumping this up is probally a mistake but, how is the current tour? What got changed?

I'd just like to say that I STILL miss Wedding Singer like crazy. *sigh* That show made me so so happy <3
Saw it second preview. I loved it!
watched the uk premier and loved it
It was kind of weird, but awesome, to see this thread back on the front page.
Yeah, I bet. You can all thank me. :)

Show's been closed for over 2 years now (and almost 3 years since it opened), but I am just sharing some pics from the production I'm in rather then starting a new thread.
The Wedding Singer
Schaumburg On Stage, Illinois
First community theatre production in IL.
And a video of "Move That Thing".
