JAMES AND THE GIANT PEACH, JR. Words and Music by Benj Pasek & Justin Paul Book by Timothy Allen McDonald Based on the book James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl JULY 31 – AUGUST 3 Please note, this show is presented through our Community Outreach Summer Production Series, meaning, the actors on stage are still in training. Run Time: About one hour When James is sent by his conniving aunts to chop down their old fruit tree, he discovers a magic potion that grows a tremendous peach, rolls into the ocean and launches a journey of enormous proportions. James befriends a collection of singing insects that ride the giant piece of fruit across the ocean, facing hunger, sharks and plenty of disagreements along the way.
Directed and Choreographed by Julie Herber and Karli Cole
Music Direction by Angelica Ramos
