It’s sure to be a night you’ll always tweasure!

Despite a lackluster performance at the box office when the movie was first released in 1987, The Princess Bride has gone on to become one of the most quoted films of all time with a cult fanbase that now includes several generations of fans.  Cary Elwes, who starred as Westley, the film’s hero, has had fans utter famous lines from the film for decades, yet instead of driving him crazy, the fans just make him appreciate that role more and more.  

New Jersey Stage spoke with Cary Elwes about his book and the show in 2015.  Click here for the feature article.
