Seacoast Rep Opens JAMES AND THE GIANT PEACH 4/13
by BWW News Desk - April 02, 2013
Roald Dahl's classic tale of a boy and his magic peach comes to life on The Rep stage! After the smashing success of PAPA's (Portsmouth Academy of Performing Arts) collaboration with the Rep's Adult Resident Company's production of Winnie The Pooh A Christmas Tale, director Miles Burns felt as though he should continue the tradition of combining youth apprentices with seasoned adult actors to put on a youth production. James and The Giant Peach was an "obvious choice" says Burns "The story lends itself to the adult actors being able to portray many different roles, and to have some fun while doing it. And it allows the youth company to work with adult actors they look up to and 'step up their game'. The combination is a winning match."
