Presents the comedy “Four Weddings and an Elvis,” by local playwright Nancy Frick.
The show takes place in a small, tacky wedding chapel in Las Vegas. The proprietor Sandy (Gina Salamone) guides a series of couples as they take the big leap. In the first act, Stan (Jon Zuker) and Bev (Sharon Cerauli) arrive for a quickie marriage to get back at their ex-spouses. John/Elvis (Greg Davis) shows up to officiate the procedures with a special show biz twist. In the next act, two washed up TV actors Vanessa (Debbie Lewis) and Bryce (Rich Hall) try to jumpstart their moribund careers by getting hitched. There to help them is Lou (Doug Tague), a minister/Elvis impersonator way past retirement age. Act Three features the mild mannered postal clerk Marvin Marvel (Ed Young), who is engaged to his exact opposite, Fiona (Colleen Mackle). She is just out prison for bank robbery when her ex-boyfriend Fist (Kyle Aptacy) escapes to break up the nuptials. All the characters return for the final act for a surprise wedding.
Other shows by Frick include, "For Goodness Sake," "Exit Date," and "Roomies" all produced at the Village Players of Hatboro. Her plays are very popular with many of the local community theaters in the area. The show is directed by Fran Carroll whose past productions include, "Three Bags Full," "Play On!" and "Dearly Departed."
