The most talked about production of 2018 to date! Without danger of fulsome exaggeration, one of the most provocative shows you’re likely to see this year in Nashville.

At an abandoned church in East Nashville, 19 artists gathered to tell a story about fighting for your voice, following your truth, and the power of choosing the love that’s right for you.
With completely original music from blues to punk rock, we took the audience on the journey of fifty brides fleeing a mass arranged marriage.
Soon, the fifty grooms caught up with the brides and mayhem ensued: women threw themselves over and over again to the ground, people danced, someone flew, things were smashed…
…and finally, unable to escape their forced marriages, 49 of the brides murdered 49 of the grooms and one bride fell in love.
“The social media buzz was hot and heavy for Big Love, with theaterati of all stripes extolling the virtues of the script and hearalding the show’s talented cast for their total commitment to the project.” (Jeff Ellis)
Big Love was written by Charles Mee. Produced by Kristin McCalley in collaboration with Members of The Party. Direction by Amanda Card. Show Design by Clayton Landiss. Music by Mike Rosenbaum and Brooke Gronermeyer. Movement by Kristin Moon. Photos by Sean Cooney.
