Grab a seat in the pew, because you're invited to Muriel's Wedding: celebrate 30 years of the gloriously kitsch, ABBA-laden Australian comedy classic that gained a loyal queer following and made Toni Collette – and the terrible, terribly wonderful Muriel – a star. It’s as good as ‘Dancing Queen’.
All Muriel (Collette) wants is to get married. A twenty-something misfit in the provincial town of Porpoise Spit, surrounded by her unsympathetic family, she longs for an escape – and she finds one.
Ready to reinvent herself, she steals a blank cheque and flies herself out to a holiday resort on the quest for love (or at the least, the approval of her mean girl ex-classmates).
There she meets fellow outcast Rhonda (Rachel Griffiths), and the two immediately understand each other. They set off to Sydney to live their dreams – until Muriel finds herself with an unexpected proposal.
