Tickets at Neil Simon Theatre

The Neil Simon Theatre opened in 1927 as The Alvin. It was built by producers Alex Aarons and Vinton Freedly and designed by Herbert J. Krapp. The producers lost the theater during the Great Depression, at which point it was used by CBS as a radio studio. It became a legitimate theater again after the departure of CBS in the mid-1940s

It was purchased by the Shubert Organization in 1975, and in 1983 it was renamed after playwright Neil Simon.

Story for Big Fish

Big Fish on Broadway is based on the novel by Daniel Wallace and the popular film directed by Tim Burton. The musical centers on Edward Bloom, a charismatic traveling salesman who lives life to its fullest…and then some. Edward's larger-than-life stories thrill everyone around him—except his son, Will. As Edward lay dying and Will prepares to have a son of his own, Will sets out on a mission to find the truth behind his father's mythic stories.

Big Fish features direction and choreography by five-time Tony Award winner Susan Stroman (The Producers), music and lyrics by Tony nominee Andrew Lippa (The Addams Family) and a new book by the movie's screenwriter John August. Two-time Tony winner Norbert Leo Butz (Wicked, The Last Five Years), Tony nominee Kate Baldwin (Giant) and Tony nominee Bobby Steggert (Ragtime) lead the cast as the Bloom family.
