The stage musical adaptation of Tom Hanks' hit film of the same name tells the story of a 12-year-old boy, Josh Baskin, who grows up overnight after being granted a wish by a "Zoltar Speaks" machine at a carnival. At first, he finds his new-found freedom "kewl"; but being a kid trapped inside an adult's body is not all that it's cracked up to be. With the aid of his best friend, Josh must cope with the problems of adulthood while trying to locate another "Zoltar" machine so that he can wish himself back into being a kid again.
