Big The Musical

Josh Baskin is fed up with being a clumsy kid. At a carnival, he wishes the Zoltar machine (an arcade machine that predicts the future) to become an adult.
To his shock, his wish is granted. After a confusing start, Josh is forced to do "grown-up" things, like finding a job and a girlfriend. However, in the end, Josh realizes he should be a kid again. With the help of his friend Billy, he goes in search of the Zoltar machine.
