"This is the perfect show for those who are party animals, who love dressing up and easily make small talk with strangers, who believe in marriage and happily ever after. Not to mention those who relish participatory theater productions. [...] so fascinating was the forced gaiety, so authentic the human interactions, so exquisite the bride and broom’s spot-on responses at every moment...that yes, I was sucked in and truly enjoyed myself."
"My favorite part of the event was how outgoing everyone was and the cast’s interaction with the party guests. I loved the humor, the clothing and the way the cast portrayed their characters. The music was great and I enjoyed how people were encouraged to dance and have fun. This was the first show I’ve attended that included such a high level of engagement with the audience and I found it to be extraordinary and unique. The grape leaves were an awesome surprise. That lightening bolt at the beginning of the inside portion was amazingly timed by Mother Nature. Everything about the event was fun!"

"The Wedding Show was a blast. The cast did an excellent job with their roles and in engaging with the guests. I felt so welcomed. Had I known individuality and freedom of expression would be so accepted I personally would have chosen to dress up even more. The humor and the laughter stand out to me the most. The selection of wines and foods were also very impressive. It’s definitely a show where you don’t leave hungry. The entire place was lit up with passion and enthusiasm. I’m definitely going back for a second time, maybe even a third."
