MILL HALL — Roald Dahl’s James and the Giant Peach is a musical for the whole family to enjoy!

When James is sent by his conniving aunts to chop down their old fruit tree, he discovers a magic potion that results in a tremendous peach and launches a journey of enormous proportions. Suddenly, James finds himself in the center of the gigantic peach — among human-sized insects with equally oversized personalities — but, after it falls from the tree and rolls into the ocean, the group faces hunger, sharks and plenty of disagreements. Thanks to James’ quick wit and creative thinking, the residents learn to live and work together as a family.

Performed on the open-air Poorman Courtyard Stage, shows will be at 11 a.m. on Saturday and July 23, and at noon on Sunday and July 24. Get tickets by calling 570-748-8083 or online at www.millbrookplayhouse.org.

Starting at $2.99/week.
