WELLSBURG –Brooke Hills Playhouse will close its 54th season with the hilarious comedic romp, “Always a Bridesmaid,” which will be presented this weekend and next weekend, Aug. 22-24 and Aug. 29-31.

Written by Playhouse favorites, Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope and Jamie Wooten, this deliriously funny comedy “Always A Bridesmaid” is the rollicking tale of four loyal and determined women who definitively answer the question, “Just how far are you willing to go to keep a promise to a friend?”

Four friends have sworn to keep the promise they made on the night of their senior prom: to be in each other’s weddings … no matter what. More than 30 years later, these Southern friends-for-life are still making “the long walk” for each other, determined to honor that vow.

Libby Ruth, the hopeful romantic with the perfect marriage, believes that her friends can find the very same happiness. Headstrong Deedra’s “rock-solid” union hangs by a thread when she discovers her husband not only has a wandering eye, but the hands to match. Monette, flashy, high-spirited and self-involved, continues to test her friends’ love and patience with all-too-frequent trips down the aisle. And salt-of-the-earth, tree-hugging Charlie discovers that marital bliss is not the end of her rainbow and panics in outrageous style when the opportunity presents itself.

If you’ve ever elbowed a stranger out of the way to catch a bride’s bouquet, seriously questioned the mental stability of the duo saying “I do” or been forced to wear the world’s ugliest bridesmaid dress, this Jones Hope Wooten comedy is definitely for you … and your dearly beloved!

Director Bill Deerfield from Weirton has assembled a gifted cast to navigate the choppy waters of love and matrimony.

“I am happy and grateful to be working with such a fun, creative and talented cast,” he said. “The show is well written, and these actresses make it come alive.”
