Tigard, OR – Participants in the Broadway Rose Theatre teen workshop will produce Big Fish, an extraordinary musical and magical tale playing August 17-19 at the Broadway Rose New Stage. Big Fish tells the fantastic tale of Edward Bloom, a traveling salesman with an incredible imagination and an enormous thirst for adventure. Edward’s larger-than-life personality and epic stories enchant everyone, except for his son, Will. As Will sets out to discover the truth of his father’s identity, he relives the magic and mystery of Edward Bloom’s past. Based on the celebrated novel by Daniel Wallace and the acclaimed film directed by Tim Burton.

The intensive 3-week training workshop is designed for young performers who are serious about pursuing musical theatre in high school, college, or professionally.
