When a bride and groom accidentally book their bachelorette and bachelor parties at the same Chili’s, what starts as a night of drinks and celebration spirals into a wildly chaotic comedy of love, lies, and lunacy. As an overbearing mother, a drunken father, and two scheming “friends” conspire to tear the couple apart (complete with fake cheating scandals, a mysterious hickey, and a jaw-dropping musical retelling of their whirlwind romance) the wedding hangs by a thread. Packed with outrageous characters, rapid-fire jokes, and absurd twists, this high-energy farce asks: can true love survive when everyone around you is completely unhinged?

Then following intermission, enjoy our Love on the Rocks Revue

The Wichita Symphony Orchestra featuring the Wichita Symphony Chorus

Experience with the awe-inspiring power of Giuseppe Verdi’s Messa da requiem — a work of profound drama, spiritual depth, and musical grandeur. Composed in memory of the Italian poet Alessandro Manzoni, Verdi’s Requiem transcends the traditional liturgical form to deliver a deeply human meditation on life, death, and the hope for eternal peace.With its operatic intensity, sweeping orchestration, and heart-stirring solos, the Requiem stands as one of the most compelling choral-orchestral masterpieces ever written. From the thunderous terror of the “Dies irae” to the serene beauty of the “Lacrimosa,” Verdi channels the full emotional spectrum in a work as theatrical as it is sacred.
