NJSDA SUMMERSTAGE PRESENTS "JAMES AND THE GIANT PEACH JR."
FRIDAY JULY 28th & SATURDAY JULY 29th at 7:00 PM
AT THE WESTMINSTER ARTS CENTER @ BLOOMFIELD COLLEGE
449 Franklin Street, Bloomfield, NJ

New Jersey School of Dramatic Arts invites you on a "peachy" musical adventure with the cast of "James and the Giant Peach Jr." brought to you by Summerstage Camp at NJSDA. The young cast are bringing this
show to the big stage on Friday July 28th and Friday July 29th at 7:00 PM at Westminster Arts Center at Bloomfield College.

Roald Dahl's James And The Giant Peach is a wonderfully fun musical
for the whole family! Featuring a "master-peach" of a score by the
TONY Award-nominated team of Pasek and Paul (Dogfight and A Christmas
Story The Musical) and book by Timothy Allen McDonald (Roald Dahl's
Willy Wonka, The Musical Adventures Of Flat Stanley). When James is
sent to chop down their old fruit tree, he discovers a magic potion
which results in a humongous peach - and embarks on a wild, amazing
adventure of large proportions!

Director Mikaela Kafka is excited to be back for her third year of
directing NJSDA's summer camp production. Kafka has been working
professionally as an actress and director for over 20 years. Her
directing credits include HONK!, The Little Mermaid, Bugsy Malone, Into
the Woods, High School Musical and Charlie Brown. As an actress Mikaela
has received rave reviews from the New York Times ("great comedic
timing") and Talkin' Broadway ("beautifully performed"). She was also
nominated by the Star Ledger for the 2007 Best Actress of New Jersey
Award. In addition to this, Mikaela has appeared in productions by the
New York International Fringe Festival, Centenary Stage Company, Garage
Theatre Group. Pittsburgh Playhouse and New Jersey Dramatists.

Musical direction for the production is headed by Terri Gorgone of

several years and had worked with the school with productions including
Rent, Little Mermaid, HONK!, Shrek the Musical, Once Upon a Mattress,
13 the Musical and several others.
