I'm so glad to see ''Big Fish'' have another life after Broadway. I'm a sucker for father-son stories, and it really got to me. I loved Andrew Lippa's score, especially ''Time Stops,'' and thought he deserved a Tony nomination. I'm assuming Slow Burn is using the revised SpeakEasy version that cuts the cast to 12 and features a 6-piece bluegrass band (instead of an orchestra). And deletes 4 songs from the Broadway version. (But does it have any new tunes?) Though ''Big Fish'' didn't land in NYC, Lippa says it's already on the hook and licensed for about 100 other productions.
