Who Played Cast in The Giant Hoax

Cast is a role in The Giant Hoax, a musical that opened Off-Broadway in 2019.

Marking the 150th anniversary of "the biggest hoax in history," IndieWorks Theatre Company, Inc., in association with Visceral Entertainment, presents The Giant Hoax a new musical based upon the true(?) story of New York's famous Cardiff Giant. Do you want to see a world of wonder? Travel back to 1869 with Emily, "Stub", P.T. Barnum, and a prehistoric petrified giant on a musical journey you won't soon forget! Emily, a bright young girl with an overactive imagination, has run away from home to prove that there are wonderful things in the world out there! Before long, she finds herself in the employ of a shady showman, William "Stub" Newell, the owner of a prehistoric, petrified giant! She and the Giant become instant "imaginary friends," but all is not well. When the unscrupulous circus impresario, P.T. Barnum, offers a hefty sum to buy Newell's profitable, prehistoric attraction and is refused, he comes up with a scheme to steal Stub's business right out from under his nose forcing Emily to sort through what is fact, what is fiction, and what's all in her imagination. Kit Goldstein Grant's new musical, based on the true story of New York's famed Cardiff Giant, features a strong female protagonist, and a catchy score packed with wonderfully whimsical music and clever lyrics. The Giant Hoax is a fun, family musical that bursts with excitement - and even a bit of history - as a cast of colorful characters takes you on a journey to the past by way of a young girl's imagination.
