Houston Tony n' Tina's Wedding
The theatrics begin before the audience even enters the theater, with cast members (who never break character throughout the evening) talking to ticket holders as if they are friends and relatives of one of the two feuding clans drawn together by two star-crossed lovers. Once inside Tony n' Tina's Wedding and seated, the audience is slowly introduced to members of the families as they arrive and take their seats in the middle of the theater, which serves as a wedding chapel, dance floor and reception hall.
At Tony n' Tina's Wedding Houston there is an army of supporting characters in this ensemble production, among them a young nun who discovers she loves to dance, an alcoholic priest and Anthony Nunzio's ditzy red-headed, long-legged, big-breasted showgirl girlfriend Madeline Monroe.
A personal favorite was the sleeze-ball wedding photographer, Sal Antonucci (portrayed by Len Talarico), who had the repugnant habit of snorting to clear his nose and throat as he walked around the room snapping pictures of the dysfunctional families.
