    */Perfect Wedding <http://cvlt.org/79thSeason/perfectwedding.php>
    /Fridays & Saturdays at 8 PM
    June 5th - 27th*

*Written by Robin Hawdon
Directed by Barbara L. Rhoades*

Few situations could raise more concern in the average man than waking 
up after a night of drunken bachelor partying to find a strange, naked 
woman next to him in bed. However, when that man is the groom, and is 
getting married in only a few hours, and that woman is not his wife, 
things can quickly get stickier than a face full of wedding cake frosting.

Such is the situation for Bill (Adam V. Young), the hapless leading man 
in /Perfect Wedding/, a comedy from British playwright Robin Hawdon 
(/Don't Dress for Dinner, The Mating Game/). While Bill is attempting to 
recall who this young woman (Brenda Redmond) is, his best man Tom (Eric 
Oswald) is soon knocking at the hotel room door, and not far behind is 
his fiancée Rachel (Rachel D. Zake). Throw in the bride's mother Daphne 
(Elaine Sonnie) and Julie the hotel maid (Denise Bernstein), and you 
have all of the necessary ingredients for a riotous farce! This tangled 
and touching love story spins with hilarious confusion, mistaken 
identities, and cover-up lies opens on our main stage this Friday!

*WEDDING DRESS SILENT AUCTION*
Chagrin Valley Little Theatre will be offering two very special 
promotions in conjunction with this production; a silent auction of 
designer bridal gowns will be held throughout the run of /Perfect 
Wedding/, with gowns on display in the lobby of the theatre and at the 
theatre's website.

*GET MARRIED ON OUR STAGE*
In addition, CVLT is offering a 'perfect wedding' on the /Perfect 
Wedding/ set to any interested couple (opening and closing nights 
excepted). The theatre will provide the stage and will play any music 
provided on the theatre's sound system. A wine and cheese reception in 
the theatre's River Room, as well as free tickets for the bride and 
groom and a group discount to their family and friends are also 
included. *Interested couples should send a 100-word or less statement 
on why they'd like to celebrate their special day in this unique way to 
nancy at cvlt.org <mail:nancy at cvlt.org?subject=Perfect%20Wedding%20Contest> 
by June 5.* A three-person committee of CVLT Board members will choose 
the winner.

*Tickets:* $14 regular / $10 for students and seniors.
