James & the Giant Peach

8–30 August 2008

Production Image

From the team who brought you 'The Twits' don't miss Roald Dahl's story of James, a lonely young boy who lives with Aunt Sponge and Aunt Spiker, two of the most revolting aunts in the history of revolting relatives (and two of Dahl's most delightfully horrible creations!). They make James work and clean all the time and never let him play with other children. Then one day an accident with a bag full of magic near an old peach tree makes some truly incredible things start to happen!

A Giant Peach grows and inside James meets his insect friends – a friendly spider, an egocentric centipede, a fashionista ladybird, a wise old grasshopper and a cantankerous earthworm. Together they embark on the adventure of a lifetime aboard the Giant Peach.
