How often do you get to see a show that will break your heart…and then put it back together even better than it was before?
Welcome to BIG FISH!
This musical fantasy blends true-life challenges with whimsical imagination. From the first moments, you’ll enter a world where the line between reality and magic is beautifully blurred. It’s a whirlwind that sweeps you through rivers, weddings, caves, circuses, wars, hospitals, and the Wild West, all the while delving into the depths of the human heart.
It’s a show that is better left explored rather than explained. It is yours to experience on your own terms…for surely every audience member will find their own story somewhere within this myriad of tales.
And it is our pleasure and privilege to share it with you …with love.
Jim Christian – Director
Big Fish is the story of Edward Bloom, a charismatic and passionate man whose fantastical stories of his epic adventures frustrate his son Will. But as Edward faces his own mortality, Will discovers that he will soon have a son of his own. Driven to find out the “true” story of who his father really is, Will embarks on a journey to separate the man from the myth.
