The musical Big is based on the 1988 movie of the same name, which was
directed by Penny Marshall and starred Tom Hanks and Elizabeth Perkins.
Big is the story of a boy named Josh, whose wish to be older is granted.
John Weidman wrote the book, and the wonderful score and lyrics were provided by David Shire and Richard Maltby,
Jr., respectively. Tony nominee Daniel Jenkins
plays the starring role of Josh Baskin, and Tony nominee Christa Moore is delightful as Josh's love interest, Susan.
The theatrical production is produced by the world famous toy emporium FAO Schwarz.
