JAMES AND THE GIANT PEACH
Book by Timothy Allen McDonald
Music & Lyrics by Benj Pasek & Justin Paul Based on the book by Roald Dahl Directed by Darryl B. Hovis*
James Henry Trotter lives with two ghastly hags - his odious aunts - and he's a very lonely little boy indeed. One day, something peculiar happens. At the end of the garden, a peach starts to grow and grow ... and grow. Inside that peach are seven very unusual insects, all waiting to take James on a magical adventure of enormous proportions. We invite you to crawl inside the giant peach and take a peek. Based on Roald Dahl's beloved book and featuring music by the Tony and Academy Award-winning songwriting team behind D ear Evan Hansen, Dogfight , and La La Land, this family musical takes you on an amazing voyage across the ocean.
