What’s your favorite Roald Dahl book? His adventures can reignite the imagination of even those who have forgotten that gasp of awe each time a new character appears. Far Off Broadway Players seeks to do just that with their upcoming production of James and the Giant Peach, TYA Version coming to the Historic Plaza Theatre September 22nd through the 24th sponsored by SpanTech Corporation.

This musical production has something for everyone. You don’t need to have a toddler to enjoy this show, but what an opportunity for our blossoming young audiences! You and your children will be most entertained by the shenanigans of the nasty mean aunts, Spiker and Sponge, yuck! What’s more, we hope seeing adults play with puppets, singing and dancing, and bringing such characters as the Ladybug or the Earthworm, Centipede, Grasshopper and Spider to life will remind audience members of all ages to keep that child-like sense of adventure, acceptance of others, independence, and belief in oneself through their lifetime.

Don’t miss reigniting that inner child and come see James and the Giant Peach! Our set design by Catt Fitzgerald and John Yakel is beyond anything we could have imagined, the lighting design by Jed Downing will be breathtaking. The production’s Director is Raeanne Brown, Musical Director Melissa Baysinger and Choreographer Sara Just. And is produced by Far Off Broadway Players. The show is sponsored by Season Underwriter SpanTech Corporation, Exclusive Show Sponsor TJ Samson Community Hospital and Technical Sponsor German American Bank. There are four public performances. Tickets are 15 dollars, but if you order 10 or more you can get a group discount.  We are so fortunate our Production will be held at the Plaza Theatre, 115 East Main Street, Glasgow, KY.  Tickets can be purchased by calling the Plaza Theatre at 270-361-2101 or by visiting www.historicplaza.com.
