The Wedding Singer

A new production of The Wedding Singer will play the Opera House, Manchester, from May 15-20.

Jon Robyns, Ray Quinn, Cassie Compton, Roxanne Pallett, Ruth Madoc and Samuel Holmes star in the musical based on the hit film.

It’s 1985. Hair is huge, greed is good and rock-star wannabe Robbie Hart is New Jersey's favourite wedding singer. When his own fiancée dumps him at the altar, Robbie makes every wedding as disastrous as his own.

West End star Jon Robyns plays Robbie Hart. Most recently he starred in Legally Blonde as Emmett Forrest; other theatre credits include Enjolras in Les Misérables, Spamalot, Memphis and Avenue Q.

Ray Quinn shot to fame as the runner-up in ITV1’s The X Factor in 2006 and as champion of Dancing on Ice in 2009.

West End leading lady and X Factor finalist Cassie Compton plays Julia. Playing best friend Holly, Roxanne Pallett is perhaps best known for her long-standing role as Jo in ITV’s Emmerdale.
