The Wedding Singer Closes on Broadway - Tour to Follow?

After 30 previews and 284 performances, The Wedding Singer is giving its final performance on Broadway tonight at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre.  Tony Award winner John Rando—of Urinetown fame—directed the musical, which is based on the popular 1998 New Line Cinema film. Composer Matthew Sklar and lyricist Chad Beguelin penned the score; the book was written by Beguelin and Tim Herlihy. Thoroughly Modern Millie Tony winner Rob Ashford choreographed, as was reported on Playbill.com.

However, this is not necessarily the end for this show.  Producers are currently in discussions about launching a nation-wide tour in 2007, as the show is already well-known around the world based on its initial film success.  StubHub.com will be here ready to serve you as soon as any announcements are made and theater tickets become available.
