Add Review/Comment

The Empress Theatre presents Seven Brides for Seven Brothers. Set in Oregon in 1850, this is the charming and hilarious story of seven lonely Pontipee brothers. Adam is the oldest and the story begins as he goes to town looking for a bride. He comes across Milly working in a restaurant and convinces her to be his bride. Milly's ecstasy quickly sours when she finds she is also to take care of Adam's six unkempt, burly brothers. Deciding to make the marriage work, Milly sets a plan into motion to marry off the brothers, first teaching them how to properly court girls. This is a show that can't be missed! Additional Information: Come to dinner and a show at the Empress! Every Friday and Saturday night, the Empress Theatre is holding an old fashioned, finger-lickin', lip-smackin', dutch oven dinner with a show, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers! Come join the Empress for a delicious outdoor dinner at 5:45pm. A special dinner and show is only $20 per person. Dinner catered by Magna's own Roger's Bakery.

    The actors did a very good job and the play was very entertaining!! The stage area was well used, music sounded great, and the acting was superb. Definitely suggest seeing this play.

    Was it just me, or was "The Casualties" almost parallel to the pullitzer prize winning play "Rabbit Hole". If you are unsure, read it sometime. The similarities are quite suprising.

    While these four one act plays, all written by local high school students, lack the polish that comes from experience and from working with a show until it progresses to a hit, they are surprisingly well written and performed. The series consists of three comedies and one drama. The first of the quartet is a fairy tale search for a missing princess, If the Shoe Fits by Chelsea King, West Jordan High. Second a study in communication called Miscommunication by Gabriel Spencer, Hillcrest. The last is a look at Alzheimers, Unforgetable by Eva Terra Nova, Olympus. All performed surprisingly well. By far the best of the series is The Casualties by Megan Chase of Riverton High School. Examining the grief, guilt, and recrimination of a hit and run driver and the victim's sister, show find themselves stuck in an elevator. The performance of this amazing drama brought tears to my eyes. The Casualties by itself is worth the drive to Magna. Collapse
