multi award-winning broadway family musical

based on the 1987 tom hanks comedy

book by john weidman

music by david shire and lyrics by richard maltby

 

the 1987 hit movie bursts onto the stage 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.

a witty, moving, insightful book by john weidman (‘pacific overtures’, ‘assassins’) and a dazzling, energetic, heartfelt, contemporary score by richard maltby jr. ('miss saigon', 'baby') and david shire (‘starting here, starting now', 'closer than ever') makes this already classic motion picture fantasy an unforgettable theatrical experience. a rare opportunity to see this fantastic and unforgettable musical that truly holds universal appeal for audiences of all ages… not to be missed…
