JAMES AND THE GIANT PEACH to Play The John W. Engeman Theater This Fall

The John W. Engeman Theater at Northport is pleased to announce JAMES AND THE GIANT PEACH opening soon as part of our Bethpage Federal Credit Union Youth Theater Series!

Featuring a wickedly tuneful score by the TONY Award-nominated team of Pasek and Paul (Dogfight and A Christmas Story the Musical) and a curiously quirky book, JAMES AND THE GIANT PEACH is a heartwarming, fun filled musical "masterpeach" for the whole family!

When James is sent by his conniving aunts to chop down their old fruit tree, he discovers a magic potion which results in a tremendous peach - and launches a journey of enormous proportions. Suddenly, James finds himself in the center of the gigantic peach among human-sized insects with equally oversized personalities, but after it falls from the tree and rolls into the ocean, the group faces hunger, sharks and plenty of disagreements. Thanks to James' quick wit and creative thinking, the residents learn to live and work together as a family. The dangerous voyage is a success, but the adventure takes a whole new twist once they land on the Empire State Building.

Meet the cast, get autographs and take photos immediately after the show in the theater's lobby!
