During the 1850s, Milly (Jane Powell), a pretty young cook, marries Adam (Howard Keel), a grizzled woodsman, after a brief courtship. When the two return to Adam's farm, Milly is shocked to meet his six ill-mannered brothers, all of whom live in his cabin. She promptly begins teaching the brothers proper behavior, and most importantly, how to court a woman. But after the brothers kidnap six local girls during a town barn-raising, a group of indignant villagers tries to track them down.

To celebrate our grand reopening of Theatre 1, we present this eye-popping widescreen extravaganza, now seven decades old: a rousing and ridiculous adaptation of Stephen Vincent Benet’s short story "The Sobbin’ Women" (itself a retelling of the Roman myth of Romulus’ capture of the Sabine women). The production, touted by contemporary ads as "In Blushing Color," was directed by film musical GOAT Stanley Donen (SINGIN' IN THE RAIN, ROYAL WEDDING), featuring lush, hand-painted backdrops and rainbow-hued mise-en-scene that'd make Douglas Sirk turn red. Michael Kidd’s balletic and gymnastic choreography of life in the Oregon Territory circa 1850 remains some of the most beloved dancing ever put on film – an unlikely marriage of sophistication and corn, as only Hollywood’s Golden Age could produce. Led by tall drink o’ water Howard Keel as eldest brother Adam and the indomitable Jane Powell as his sturdy bride Milly, SEVEN BRIDES’ cast is stacked with professional dancers, including lithe Julie Newmar, spunky Russ Tamblyn, and radiant NYC Ballet principal Jacques d’Amboise. And if that’s not enough for you, there’s a zany grab bag of Johnny Mercer tunes (including “Lonesome Polecat”) and an unforgettable pas-de-deux with a hatchet. See you at the altar! (Gabriel Wallace and Alice Quinlan)

In the Oregon territory in 1850, farmer Adam Pontipee comes into town to trade and announces to the shopkeepers that he is in the market for a wife to keep house for him and his six younger brothers. He quickly becomes enamored of Milly, a pretty, hard-working young woman who cooks for the local boardinghouse. Explaining that the responsibilities of running a farm do not allow for a lengthy courtship, Adam proposes to Milly, and they are married right away. As they ride back to the farm, Milly rejoices that she will now have only one man to take care of, and Adam does not have the heart to spoil her illusion. When they reach the farm, Milly is stunned at the sight of all the rough-and-tumble Pontipee brothers, but she promptly sets about putting their back-woods home in order. That night, however, the brothers' appalling table manners infuriate Milly, and she reproachfully tells Adam that he wanted a servant, not a wife. Milly banishes Adam from the bedroom, then relents, confessing th
