The Monticello Opera House presents 
Father of the Bride
A comedy, directed by Barbie Nettles

March 29-April 14, 2019.

George Banks learns that one of the young men he has seen occasionally about the house is about to become his son-in-law. Daughter Kay announces the engagement out of nowhere. Mrs. Banks and her sons are happy, but Mr. Banks is in a dither. A wedding adventure for the struggling father ensues….an eccentric wedding planner, arguments over blenders, wrongly sized clothing, an evolving relationship with his soon-to-be son-in-law, and learning to let go of his precious daughter…Will it be worth all the money and aggravation to start his daughter off so handsomely on the road to married life?

The adorable play first written in 1949 that inspired two classic movies starring Spencer Tracy (1950) and Steve Martin (1991). A comedy in three acts.
