JAMES
AND THE GIANT PEACH
This
original musical production of Roald Dahl’s (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) beloved
children’s book is a “happily ever after” contemporary fairy tale. The young,
heroic James, two hilarious Aunts, and some very funny life sized insect friends
experience a fabulous journey within a magical peach the size of a large house.
Their
adventures with the giant peach take them far away across the sea. With quick
thinking and teamwork, they escape sharks, survive a horrific storm and deftly
handle mysterious “Cloud People.” Their journey ends in the most beautiful
place in the world. Where else?... right next to the San Francisco Bay.
This
production was adapted for the stage by Kathleen Bradley from award winning
author Roald Dahl’s bestselling book. David Shepard, musical director for
Marin Ballet, and many other Masque Unit productions, provides the musical
score.
