“Big Fish” is a heartwarming musical that tells the larger-than-life tale of Edward Bloom, a man who leads an extraordinary life – according to the stories he tells his son, Will. But Will, who is soon to get married and expecting a child of his own, doesn’t believe the extravagant tales his father tells about meeting witches, kissing mermaids or joining the circus. When Edward’s health begins to decline, Will visits his father and tries one last time to find out the truth behind the tall tales. As Edward and Wills relationship becomes increasingly strained, Will must decide whether to accept his father’s mystical stories as fact or risk losing him completely.

A powerful musical based on Daniel Wallace’s 1998 novel, Big Fish: A Novel of Mythic Proportions and the 2003 film Big Fish.
