Theatre at St. Luke’s will present its production of “Big Fish” starting this Thursday.

The production will run Thursday, July 31, through Sunday, Aug. 10, at St. Luke’s United Methodist Church, 4851 S. Apopka-Vineland Road, Orlando.

Performances will take place at 7 p.m. Thursdays through Saturdays, with 2 p.m. matinees on Sunday, Aug. 3, Saturday, Aug. 9, and Sunday, Aug. 10.

“Big Fish” is a sweeping, imaginative musical based on the celebrated novel by Daniel Wallace and the beloved film directed by Tim Burton. Set against the backdrop of the American South, Big Fish follows the larger-than-life Edward Bloom, whose extraordinary tales blur the line between truth and myth. As Edward nears the end of his life, his son Will sets out to uncover the man behind the stories, discovering the heart, humor, and heroism hidden within.

Directed by Steve MacKinnon, with choreography by Lindsay Wood Hose and music direction by John R. Mason III and Bradley Roberts, “Big Fish” promises to be a heartfelt and visually stunning production that explores themes of family, legacy and the magic of storytelling.
