Wedding Singer Humor

umm...
i dont know any specific jokes, but...
theres a gay guy singing in Jewish
um, they say that no one would ever pay $3 for a cup of coffee, and to buy stock in "New Coke" (which did really badly, while the coffee, which i assume was starbucks, did awesome)
um, there are impersonators, like Ronald Reagan, Tina Turner, and some other people
and there's a joke about the girl named Julia, once she marries Glen, then her last name will be Gulia, like Julia Gulia
:)
and just stuff about cell phones and cd players coming out, and how they're almost like one thousand dollars each, and yeah

just go see the show, it is soooo funny, and a really fun time! i was pleasantly suprised, so just go see it! :) feel the WEDDING SINGER love and awesomeness!

:)

yeah, hope that helped

umm, not unless you really dont know anything that went on at all. i was born in the late 80s and i thought the show was halarious and fun! you should enjoy it!

I think my favorite line was...

"Did that girl from Flashdance quit Flashdancing because she had welding and sh*t to do?"

I think I almost wet myself. It may not have been that funny, but the delivery was awesome.

I didn't see this show at first either because it looked corny and this really wasn't my favorite Sandler movie. However, I went to see it and totally loved it! Now, I have to listen to the cast album at least once a day. But this musical is honestly for people who were either born in the 80's, rocked the 80's wear, or remember the 80's very well. This show I absolustly loved. If you want the humor in it, check out the picture to the left of this message. It's cute, but it won't change your life :) Much love to TWS!

Sammy: Linda, you look good.
Linda: Really?
Sammy: NOOO.

Pop on over to the Wedding Singer Love Thread (EASY LINK: https://forum.broadwayworld.com/readmessage.cfm?page=42&thread=903392&startthread=2400897) for everyone's favorite quotes. Basically, to read the libretto, go there.

Really, it's just such an awesome show. The dancing is intense, the sets are simple yet fantastic, and there are so many sight gags and hysterical jokes, it's really a joy to watch. Don't think it's corny in the least. It's just FUN.

I loved the part when George goes into his prayer. IT'S JARED'S BAR MITZ.....HAHAHAHAHAHAHA I mean I laughed hysterically, maybe because I'm Jewish? I might have been the only one who liked that scene!

Well I particularly like the part where the lead guy feels his life has gone to ruin so he jumps in the dumpster, and has to be sung to to "Come out of the dumpster" or some such silliness.

It's kind of End Game (Beckett) or Oscar of Sesame Street depending on the depth of your perspective.

You do not have to understand the 80's. The younger you are the more you will enjoy the show. You know what a wedding is? that's enough.

"The younger you are the more you will enjoy the show. You know what a wedding is? that's enough."

I admire your enthusiasm, but that's not entirely true. It definitely is beneficial to have knowledge of the 80's. Billy Idol & Phillipino? Imedla Marcos & her shoes? Gigantic batteries, "minty fresh and zestfully clean", Mr. Belvedere, New Coke, Van Halen's breaking up -- there are lots of 80's jokes that you wouldn't necessarily get. I wouldn't say the younger the better. I'd say as long as you've got a standard basis on things in the 80's -- fashion, music, movies -- you're perfectly fine. But it's definitely not meant for as young as you can go.

When I saw it the teenagers present were having the most fun, ages 13-16, particularly the girls who adored Robbie (Steve Lynch).

All of them were too young to remember the 80's but they got the wedding part and that the cast was young, talented and attractive.

"i love stephen lynch but i dont adore him or anything"

That is too funny.

I'd put love beyond mere adoration, but whadda I know!

I'm a late 80s kid (born in 86) but I think I unfortunately have to owe getting pretty much all the jokes to watching hours of I Love the 80s on VH1. I think if you like that show, you'll love The Wedding Singer.

Imelda Marcos and her shoes.
