James and the Giant Peach
A magical peach! An imprisoned boy! Insect friends! An incredible journey! By the time the play is over, much is revealed–the wickedness of some, the goodness of others, and the indecision of many when they are faced with crises. This amazing adventure of James Henry Trotter, a boy who dreams of escape from his life and his fearsome aunts is based on the famous children’s book written by Roald Dahl.
September 30 and October 1, 7, and 8 at 7:30 p.m. and October 2 and 9 at 2 p.m.
