Packed your fascinator? Rehearsed your most attractive crying face?  Well, good.  Over in Mansfield – by way of Bromley Little Theatre – the wedding of the year is about to take place.  Local girl Sylvia is marrying Polish lad Marek, and you are all invited.

The ceremony plays out in real time as you share the chaos of the early morning preparations through to the alcohol fuelled reception.  The action is fast-paced, heady, hilarious and emotional……..as the drinks flow and dances are shared, passions boil over and the limits of love are tested, loyalties are stretched, and long-held secrets are revealed.

What happens when the happiest day of your life opens the door to a new, frightening and uncertain future?
