From the mind of The New York Times bestseller and Tony Award®, WGA, and Emmy nominated writer Amber Ruffin (The Wiz, Some Like It Hot), The Unknown Artists are proud to present Bigfoot! The Musical. You’ve heard the myth and the legend, but do you know the man?

Bigfoot is a sweet kid with a not-so-slight pituitary gland issue, living in his hometown of Mud Dirt, USA. His ailing mother and overwhelmed doctor have mostly succeeded in keeping his presence a secret from the townsfolk, but now that he’s grown too big to hide, the proverbial “foot” is out of the footprint! Mud Dirt’s corrupt mayor, seeing his chance to avoid responsibility for the town’s gradual fiscal demise, places the blame for the problems on Bigfoot, and attempts to take him out with one fell swoop of angry-mob justice. The gentle giant must now rise to the challenge of protecting himself and his friends, in the hope of returning some compassion to their once promising town.

With book and lyrics by Amber Ruffin and Kevin Sciretta (iO Chicago) and music by David Schmoll (The Second City), Bigfoot is the next gut-bustin’, laugh-a-minute Fringe musical you have to see! @unknownartistsla
