Written by Charles Mee, directed by Gabi Van Horn. What do you get when you mix fifty brides, fifty grooms and an Italian country manor? Blood and murder, naturally. Charles Mee, the playwright, drew inspiration for Big Love from The Suppliants by Aeschylus -- AKA the "original" western play -- creating a modernized tale of sisterhood, obligation, gender norms and LOVE that sticks to your ribs.
