Giant is an epic love story set in the Lone Star State that spans generations. Bick Benedict is the heir apparent to the largest ranch in Texas, Reata. When he falls in love with a Virginia girl, Leslie, and brings her home, complications ensue as Leslie learns to cope with a new land and culture, and Bick tries to cope with a changing country and changing times. Jett Rink, represents a new age in Texas - oil. The struggles between the cattle ranger's way of life and the drilling for oil, hostilities between whites and Mexicans, exploitation of the land and the desire to preserve it, the challenge of adapting to a changing world versus clinging to traditional values---Bick, Leslie, their children, and all those they know and encounter must face these challenges.

Three-time Tony nominee Michael Greif (Rent, Grey Gardens, Next to Normal) will direct Giant, which is written by Michael John LaChiusa (music and lyrics) and Sybille Pearson, based on the novel by Edna Ferber. Greif will reunite with costume designer Jeff Mahshie, who also worked on the Broadway and touring productions of Next to Normal. The design team also includes set designer Allen Moyer (Grey Gardens, Twelve Angry Men), lighting designer Kenneth Posner (Catch Me if You Can), sound designer Brian Ronan (The Book of Mormon, American Idiot), choreographer Alex Sanchez and wig designer David BrIan Brown.
