Big Fish
May 2 through May 19
Based on the celebrated novel by Daniel Wallace and the acclaimed film directed by Tim Burton, starring Robert Guillaume, Big Fish tells the story of Edward Bloom, a traveling salesman who lives life to its fullest!
Edward's incredible, larger-than-life stories thrill everyone around him. But his son
Will, about to have a child of his own, is determined to find the truth behind his father's epic tales.
Overflowing with heart and humor, Big Fish is an extraordinary musical that reminds us why we love going to the theatre for an experience that's richer, funnier, and BIGGER than life itself.
Director Matt Reher is excited about bringing Big Fish to the Ritz Theatre audiences: "There's a beautiful brilliance to seeing a show at The Ritz Theatre.
Big Fish is a perfect show for The Ritz Theatre stage. It delivers a 'big musical' performance with a 'small musical' cast that lets the audience focus on the story. Big Fish is absolutely enjoyable for the entire family!
