Director’s Note:
“It has long been a dream of mine to direct Big Fish in connection with Father’s Day. I can think of no better story—no better musical—to honor the bond between fathers and their children. One line from the novel has always stayed with me: ‘If a man could be said to be loved by his son, then I think that man could be considered great’. To be seen as great in the eyes of our children—what a beautiful and humbling definition of a life well lived. I hope you delight in the wonder, heart, and humor of Big Fish. And when the curtain falls, don’t forget to give your dad a big hug. ” ~Toni Butler
Big Fish was directed and choreographed by Toni Butler, with addition choreography by Sarah Scherbel, with musical direction by Emily Kroff, and accompanied by a live orchestra under the direction of Michelle Willis. Big Fish performance June 13-23., 2025
