After years of feeling like an outsider in the house of his despicable Aunt Sponge and Aunt Spiker, James finally has some excitement in his life.
Crowds gather to see the Giant Peach and reporters interview the audience on live feed TV!

James discovers a secret entranceway into the fruit and when he crawls inside, he meets a bunch of marvellous oversized friends - Old-Green-Grasshopper, Centipede, Ladybird, Miss Spider and funny old Earthworm.

With a snip of the stem and some lovely musical numbers, the peach starts rolling away, and the exciting adventure begins!

The Roald Dahl classic James and the Giant Peach is a wonderful production which will captivate young and old alike.  The story would often set up a scene which seemed impossible to enact, only to be imaginatively and unexpectedly realised. The all-ages play of the year! Nigel Benson, Otago Daily Times, NZ
