Big Fish

synopsis

Wednesday 19 – Saturday 22 February 2019, Putney Arts Theatre

Based on the celebrated novel by Daniel Wallace and the acclaimed film directed by Tim Burton,
Big Fish tells the story of Edward Bloom, a travelling salesman who lives life to its fullest… and then some! Edward’s incredible, larger-than-life stories thrill everyone around him – most of all his devoted wife, Sandra. But their 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 humour, Big Fish is an extraordinatory musical that reminds us why we love going to the theatre – for an experience that’s richer, funnier and bigger than life itself.
