Big Fish is an epic musical adventure with music and lyrics by Andrew Lippa and book by John August. The musical revolves around the extraordinary life of Edward Bloom, a charismatic storyteller with a penchant for embellishment. As his son, Will, attempts to separate fact from fiction, the musical takes the audience on a magical journey through a world of tall tales, love, and reconciliation while celebrating the power of imagination.
Tim Burton, the director of the 2003 film, said that Big Fish “…is about what’s real and what’s fantastic, what’s true and what’s not true, what’s partially true, and how, in the end, it’s all true.” Overflowing with heart and humor,
