BIGFOOT! tickets

See the tall tale you know and love reimagined — and sing. You ain't seen nothing yeti: in BIGFOOT! The Musical in New York, a small town is undone when a misunderstood youth — who's eight feet tall — reveals political corruption and neighborhood panic. Don't miss the biggest show to come the Big Apple.

Set in the town of Muddirt, BIGFOOT! The Musical follows a youth like no other. In a glow-in-the-dark oasis that exists somewhere between a chemical dump site and a nuclear power plant, BIGFOOT! The Musical is a tall tale revitalized and a can’t-miss (or rather, can’t-myth) musical comedy for our times.

Featuring lyrics by Tony and Emmy Award nominee Amber Ruffin (Some Like it Hot), a book by Ruffin and Kevin Sciretta (MST3K), music by David Schmoll (The Second City) and direction and choreography by Danny Mefford (Spelling Bee, Fun Home), BIGFOOT! The Musical is musical comedy’s next big thing.

The musical's footprints are already around New York: it's previewed with a 2024 concert performance at 54 Below and also held developmental performances at New York Stage and Film the same year. Now, it gets a full production, playing for a limited eight-week run at New York City Center. It is presented in association with Manhattan Theatre Club (a new-play generator with decades of shows that have reshaped modern theatre) and also Benson Drive Productions.

Musicals about myths are not new — Hadestown is a Broadway hit and Bella: An American Tall Tale made a splash off Broadway in 2017 — but this is the first musical to center Bigfoot.

If you think great musical comedies are an urban legend, this is the show for you.
