Big Fish

June 29, 2018 — July 29, 2018

Book by John August
Music & Lyrics by Andrew Lippa
Directed by Oanh Nguyen
Musical Direction by Robyn Manion
Choreographed by Kelly Todd

Adapted from Daniel Wallace’s novel and Tim Burton’s acclaimed film, and featuring spine-tinglingly beautiful music and lyrics by Andrew Lippa (The Addams Family and The Wild Party), Big Fish is a fantastical musical that illustrates the larger-than-life anecdotes of Edward Bloom, a man nearing the end of his life. This fact has compelled his grown son Will to embark on an adventure of his own — to unravel his real dad from the myths of his tall tales. Filled with magic, love, luck, and crazy coincidences, this rollicking fantasy set in the American South is a tribute to the power of dreaming big.

Based on the novel by Daniel Wallace and the Columbia Motion Picture written by John August
