The musical revolves around Robbie Hart, the Wedding Singer. Born a true romantic, Robbie is devastated when he is stood up at the altar by his fiancée.
Will this heartbroken rocker get a second chance at romance before new love, Julia, marries a Wall Street shark? Only time will tell.
The Ada High School production features Reece Evans as Robbie Hart and Ashley Briedenbach as Julia.
Scott Henning, vocal music instructor, is the director while Jonathan Lischak, Instrumental music instructor, will conduct the band.
