About the play:
|
The 1987 hit movie bursts onstage in this vibrant, funny and touching musical. When frustrated 12-year-old Josh Baskin makes a wish to become "big" and wakes up the next morning to find his wish has literally come true, 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. Come see this new version of the Tony®-award nominated musical comedy, created just for our family audiences. For everyone ages 7 & up.
