Tickets are now on sale for The Master’s University Theatre Arts production of the time-honored classic “Father of the Bride.”
TMU will offer six showings from March 24 to April 1, with performances held at the school’s North Campus, located between Quigley Canyon Road and Placeritos Boulevard. Tickets can be purchased here.
“We would love to welcome the community to campus for this heartwarming and funny show,” said Tricia Hulet, director of TMU Theatre Arts.
“Father of the Bride” follows main character Mr. Banks, who must come to terms with his daughter’s impending marriage. Banks didn’t envision this day coming so soon, but it’s largely up to him to determine whether it remains a joyous occasion — or becomes a complete catastrophe.
Hulet, who has led TMU Theatre Arts since 2008, described the show as full of “hilarious characters, lots of warmth, and a strong sense of family. ”
“Our crew belly-laughed during our read-through the other day,” she said.
The Mission of TMU Theatre Arts

More About The Program
TMU Theatre Arts is a co-curricular program housed in the communication department. It is designed to give training and expression in the performing arts alongside any major at the University. Participants and contributors come from all disciplines, dorms, and interests at TMU. Our program offers classes such as Theatre Arts, Theatre Production, and Introduction to Acting, allowing any students to receive formal, credited training in the performing arts.
We instill students with a biblical philosophy of the performing arts while giving them experience in the craft of acting and/or the many aspects of production. We emphasize the process as much as the product, which enables us to have an others-focused theatre program. This mindset pervades everything we do as we strive together to serve with our varied gifts. Many of our graduates have continued on to jobs in the arts industry or teaching, and some have pursued graduate school. We love seeing the various ways they use their skills and become gospel witnesses.
