It has just been confirmed that Big the Musical is to transfer to the Dominion Theatre in the West End for a limited 9 week period from 6th September to 2nd November prior to White Christmas opening there on 16th November. There will be gala night to support Make-A-Wish on 17 September.
Based on the hit 1988 film of the same name starring Tom Hanks, the musical follows Josh who is a 12 year-old boy trapped in an adult's body. It has songs by David Shire and Richard Maltby and book by John Wiedman.
Directed and choreographed by Morgan Young, the West End show will again star Jay McGuinness as Josh - who originated the part in Plymouth - with further casting to be confirmed. Ex Wanted boy band member McGuinness won Strictly Come Dancing in 2015 and is currently appearing in Rip It Up at the Garrick Theatre.
