Watch trailer from Big The Musical in London’s West End

Here’s a first look at the new production of Big The Musical playing in London’s West End.

Adapted from the hit 1988 film starring Tom Hanks, Big tells the story of Josh Baskin, a 12-year-old boy who grows up overnight after making a wish on a Zoltar Speaks machine at a carnival.

The musical follows Josh’s attempts to return to his childhood while trying to cope with his new life as a 30-year-old man.

The show is playing at the Dominion Theatre for a limited season through to November 2.

He’s joined by Girls Aloud star and Jay’s fellow Strictly Come Dancing finalist Kimberley Walsh as Susan Lawrence with Wendi Peters as Mrs Baskin and Matthew Kelly as George MacMillan.
