Maggie's Getting Married kicks off BCP's 2022-23 season

The raunchy, modern comedy is set in the Duncan family’s kitchen and follows Maggie, Wanda, Cass, Tom, Axel, and Russell on the eve of a possibly explosive wedding, where family dynamics collide. What could go wrong?

THE BATTLEFORDS — Tom, a dentist and a father, fears his own mortality. Cass, a religious mother, might have fallen out of love. Axel, a budding actor, is set to star in an X-rated Peter Pan. Wanda, a loving sister, doesn’t know how to settle on a man. And Maggie, set to marry Russell, is unaware that her sister knows her fiancé a little too well.

There’s even a pastor in the other room. What could go wrong?
