The Wedding Singer

“Winston has created a real treat for anyone like me who grew up throughout the eighties. Look closely and you’ll see eighties pop culture and bits of your youth tumble by in a cavalcade of unabashed eighties schmaltz. It’s here from ridiculously out-of-date technology (yes that means you Motorola) right through to lively choreography torn straight from Michael Jackson’s Thriller video. Nothing is sacrosanct as Winston and the terrific cast brings this wonderful tale to life.”

BRITISH THEATRE ★★★★★

“Nick Winston directed this remake and he did not fail to deliver a brilliantly talented cast. The vocals were outstanding from all members of the cast and the comedy went hand in hand with the story.”

WHATS GOOD TO DO ★★★★★

“Having lived through the 1980's I can confirm that Nick Winston has got the songs and dancing spot on as he did with ‘Rock of Ages’ last year.”

LONDON THEATRELAND ★★★★★

“Nick Winston has excelled himself as director and choreographer with this slick, ingenious production. He has provided a seamless flow of storytelling and humour and has choreographed the piece with such originality and high energy that I was itching to get up and join in.”

BREAKING THE BLOG ★★★★

“Nick Winston’s energetic, joyful production”

THE STAGE ★★★★

“the show with the toe-tapping It’s Your Wedding Day. Nick Winston’s unsurprisingly incredible choreography ensured this number left me wide eyed and grinning from ear to ear.”

WEST END WILMA ★★★★

“Curve Theatre's very own associate artist, choreographer Nick Winston was again showcasing his natural flare and ability to bring a stage production to live through his distinctive choreographic style. The choreography was absolute flawless throughout and incorporated the ensemble cast to show off their individual style within the structure too which I thought was really special.”

THEATRE & TONIC ★★★★

“This offers a standout moment as all the boys drown their sorrows in a bar, giving Director Nick Winston’s choreography a chance to shine through.”

FAIRY POWERED PRODUCTIONS ★★★★

“Director and choreographer Nick Winston has delivered a real treat of a production, with some stand out scenes that deserve special mention, All About the Green which opens act two packs a punch with some slick choreography and dynamic staging whilst Single in contrast is stripped back and simple but enormously effective, as the males of the cast share their woes whilst gathered behind the bar displaying some clever and entertaining choreography.”

OPENING NIGHT

“Directed by award-winning Nick Winston the remake is delivered by a talented cast, armed with outstanding vocals, catchy songs and enough witty jokes to keep the audience enthralled.”

SALFORD NOW

“Francis O’Connor’s clever set designs and Nick Winston’s superb choreography are a joy to behold. The Wedding Singer is great show and thoroughly entertaining”

BELLE BRIDAL MAGAZINE

“Here directed and choreographed very tightly by Nick Winston with a sliding set of fences (with dumpster!) and freewheeling wedding reception space-cum-office by Francis O’Connor, this really fits the all-singing-dancing slot with the most detailed routines and individualised ensemble pieces I’ve seen here.”

FRINGE REVIEW

“There really aren’t enough positive adjectives to describe this show. Not to go OTT on enthusiasm, but The Wedding Singer is exceptional: light-hearted, hilarious, toe-tapping, catchy, heartwarming, talented, clever and perhaps the best musical I have ever seen”

STATE OF THE ARTS

“Nick Winston’s sharp direction and choreography, keep the action moving.”
