Red Mask Children’s Theater presents Bigger Than Life! by Cynthia Mercati. Tall tales, folktales, talking tales, noodles, whoppers, windies, stretchers — everyone has a different name for these stories.
Whatever you call them, America’s legends come to life in this lively, delightful award-winning play that will appeal to all ages. When P.T. Barnum arrives in town with his traveling troupe, the mayor isn’t so sure Barnum’s on the level. So, the master showman agrees to give a sample of his wares. What follows is knee slappin’, foot stompin’, rip roarin’ fun, as some of the best loved characters in American folklore come to life to show us their stories. As P.T. Barnum might say, prepare to be amused, amazed, astounded, edified and infinitely entertained. And now — on with the show!
