Big: The Musical

Directed by Troy Rutter

The 1987 hit movie bursts onstage in this vibrant, funny and touching musical. When frustrated adolescent Josh Baskin wishes he were "big" and wakes up the next morning a 30-year-old man, he discovers there's much more to being an adult than he's bargained for – and learns we must all grow up at our own pace, in our own time.

Performances:
October 3, 4, 10, 11 at 7:30PM
October 5, 12 at 2:00PM
