Signature Theatre in association with the Shen Family Foundation presents GIANT
A new musical based on the novel by Edna Ferber
Book by Sybille Pearson
Music and Lyrics by Michael John LaChiusa
Directed by Jonathan Butterell
Adapted from the American classic by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Edna Ferber, Giant is a daring new musical, already acknowledged as one of the most promising contemporary theater debuts. Epic in vision and scope, swept with passion and violence, Giant is the powerful story of a Texas rancher and his Virginia-born wife as they face increasing challenges in their marriage and family in an ever-changing American landscape.

I saw it two weeks ago and was floored by the beauty of the score. A more balanced sampling would also have included excerpts from "Topsy Turvy", "Midnight Blue" (Katie Thompson is phenomenal!), "Look Ahead" or "Coyote", and "Private Property" or "Lady L".
