THE BIG BANG Returns to B Street This Summer

By: May. 21, 2013

Original 2005 cast members Greg Alexander, Jason Kuykendall, and Chris Schlagel return in Graham and Feuer's cosmic romp. Reprising their roles as two wannabe producers, Greg and Jason pitch their new idea for a musical recounting the history of the world to prospective investors. Chris accompanies as they introduce us to Adam and Eve, Nefertiti Queen of Egypt, Julius Ceasar, the Virgin Mary, Christopher Columbus, Pocahontas, Napoleon, Jimi Hendrix and many others in this gloriously campy and outrageously funny show.

The Big Bang (originally entitled Free Food and Frontal Nudity) premiered at PSI Theatre in Durham, NC before opening Off-Broadway in 2000. Boyd Graham earned two Drama Desk Award nominations for his work on the show. B Street's 2005 production, also directed by Acting Company member John P. Lamb, ran for a staggering 108 performances. This summer's special engagement of the show is expected to sell out quickly, so patrons are encouraged to buy their tickets as soon as possible.

Recommended for mature audiences due to partial nudity.
