James and the Giant Peach

This year our Middle School students are performing James and the Giant Peach in the Horton Auditorium.

James Trotter lives with his aunts Spiker and Sponge. But his aunts are cruel and torment poor James mercilessly. Urged by a mysterious person, James creates a magical potion in an effort to change his situation. But the magic gets away from him, and instead he creates a giant peach and human-sized insects. The aunts see a way to make money from this impressive fruit. However, the insects decide they have to escape, and with James, they cut the peach from the tree--and their adventure begins.

Based on Roald Dahl’s book of the same name, James and the Giant Peach is a whimsical and magical journey of one boy out to change his life and find a real family.
