“Father of the Bride” by Breitling Youth Theater

Join Breitling Youth Theatre for their production of “Father of the Bride,” the classic tale of a father of the bride who gets the pre-wedding jitters. When his Daughter Kay announces an engagement out of nowhere, Mrs. Banks and her sons are happy, but Mr. Banks is in a dither. The groom-to-be, Buckley Dunstan, appears on the scene and Mr. Banks realizes that the engagement is serious. Buckley and Kay don’t want a “big” wedding—just a simple affair with a few friends!
