Through multiple invited table reads with seasoned actors, professional studio sessions/demo recordings and targeted feedback from industry professionals, we continue to elevate the emotional resonance and powerful impact of BIG MAN. Our team continues to collaborate with numerous experts and organizations for guidance on how to shed light on the struggles of both patient and caregivers. These developmental milestones are leading directly into a 29-Hour Equity staged reading, benefit concerts, and concept album in 2026, followed by a regional theater premiere, where the show will be put in front of live audiences to fine-tune pacing, performances, and audience connection.
