A rousing tale exploring mythology, storytelling, and how those things collide and commentate on culture. This play takes the audience on a ride through the writer's imagination and process as they discover what our myths as Americans say about us and our society. I love how this play asks the reader/audience to examine what they've been taught about history, what they believe about it, and what that says about our country. Would be a great piece for high schools and colleges!

This is such a great ensemble piece about storytelling. Bigfoot is all of us because ingesting and digesting stories is what keeps the world going. The framing of the writer's room, a stressful room of blankness, is a great device as it gets filled with all of the ideas that have inspired America and American stories through time. The bits and pieces of true and false history are also very American since the beginning. This story tells so much and allows many actors to be showcased in a fun way.

BigFoot is possibly the greatest American myth. A writer's room...is a close second. Giacopasi has hilariously interwoven these two things to create a really special play - a witty, surprising, heartfelt look into where our stories come from, who tells them, and how those stories shape our sense of the American legend. With pop-ups from some of your favorite historical figures, Giacopasi ultimately asks us to interrogate the gatekeepers of our myths, the accessibility of our shared national history, and how that ultimately effects representation in our media.
