It’s called a Perfect Wedding and starts during that season.
The comedy has a three week engagement at Drayton Festival Theatre from June 27 through to July 14.
Imagine the confusion when Bill wakes up on the morning of his wedding day in his honeymoon suite with a dreadful hangover, only to find an unknown – and unclothed – woman in his bed. In perfect farcical fashion, before the groom can decide what to do, his bride-to-be arrives to dress for the nuptials, setting in motion a series of matrimonial mix-ups, double entendres, and startling revelations.
Added to the confusion is a best man who wants to ditch his duties, a pair of horrible in-laws, and a dim-witted chambermaid who knows too much (and yet nothing at all).
Perfect Wedding is directed James Kall.
The cast includes Darren Keay as Bill, the bewildered groom. Drayton Entertainment favourite Jackie Mustakas takes on the role of Judy, “the other woman,” who sets in motion all of the confusing charades in the silly escapade.
Josee Boudreau tackles the role of Rachel, the always-in-command bride. David Leyshon is Tom, the not-so dependable best man. Gabi Epstein is Julie, the unpredictable chambermaid, and Karen Wood delights as the bride’s over-emotional mother, Daphne.
“Who doesn’t love a story of total confusion and unbridled chaos?” asked artistic director of Drayton Entertainment Alex Mustakas. “Perfect Wedding is a real gem, with just the right amount of jesting, life lessons and hysteria.”
