The 1987 hit movie bursts onstage 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 David Shire and Richard Maltby, Jr. (Baby, Starting Here, Starting Now, Closer Than Ever) makes this already classic motion picture fantasy an unforgettable theatrical experience.
