HPHS Turns the Park Cities Upside-Down With This
Same Day Marriage, Bride’s Hidden Agenda & Group Kidnapping by Her New In-Laws
To Form One Big Happy Family
Pull up your boots and hold onto your hats when this high school version of the all-dancing, all-singing, all-new production of the rip-roarin' musical comedy classic bursts onto the HPHS Linda Raya stage. Seven Brides for Seven Brothers is a big, brawling, rollicking show filled with rambunctious energy and set in the 1850s Oregon Territory. This beloved musical based on the glorious MGM hit film and Stephen Vincent Benet’s short story "The Sobbin' Women" tells the story of Adam Pontipee and his backwoods brothers' unusual pursuit of brides. When Adam goes to town to get a wife, he miraculously convinces the beautiful and feisty Milly to marry him that same day, and then she immediately starts reforming her six rowdy brothers-in-law. When her plan to marry off the boys backfires, this exuberant rousing musical kicks into high gear with a combination of daredevil dancing and classic songs like “Bless Your Beautiful Hide”, "Goin' Courtin", “Sobbin’ Women”, and "Wonderful, Wonderful Day".
