"BIG FISH: A New Broadway Musical" - Review #11

Ok so I guess I will never be able to see a show pre-tonys and predict the winner.  As like last year I thought Matilda would win Best New Musical hands down...  they gave it to Kinky Boots...  now I'm gay and well...  In fairness I never saw Kinky Boots...  However I never saw Book of Mormon either... and I still think I wouldn't like it.

Just by the buzz, I decided to buy TKTS to see Big Fish.  And I'm glad I did.  Again I thought this was another family friendly show (remember I was afraid that family friendly and a smash in my mind would go hand and hand) however since Catch Me....  I'm glad I found some family gems.

Another reason I wanted to see this, also has a Catch Me reason.... Mr. Norbert Leo Butz...  What a stage name, however more so...  What a freaking triple threat actor....

One reason I didn't think I would like it is because its one of those new was a movie lets put music to it musical.  But I never saw the movie...  and really I don't think it would have been as good without the music.

Just as I thought this would take home Best New Musical....  they announced the closing date of 12/29/13.  Just like Chaplin, what a shame.  Oh well.  Fantastic show overall...  Go see the tour!!!

 2 must see's!!
