  • James and the Giant Peach on Stage - 2024

    James and the Giant Peach' is an upcoming theatrical production, taking place from October 31 to November 10, 2024. The play is an adaptation by David Wood based on the beloved children's book by Roald Dahl. Under the direction of Rodolfo Robles Cruz, this performance promises to engage audiences with its charm and creativity.

    The story is presented through the perspective of James, who recounts his adventures alongside a cast of whimsical insect characters, including Miss Spider, Old-Green-Grasshopper, Centipede, Ladybird, and Earthworm. The play opens at a pivotal moment, set at the conclusion of the narrative, where James and his companions reside within the giant peach stone, located in Central Park, New York.

    This production aims to provide a faithful retelling of Dahl's narrative, emphasizing themes of friendship and adventure that resonate with both children and adults. The setting and characters are expected to enhance the experience, drawing on the playful yet meaningful nature of the original text.
