SHOW SYNOPSIS
Wizzpopping wonder and fruit filled fun abound in this stage adaption of Roald Dahl's greatest adventure story. James is a lonely young boy who is forced to work like a slave for the most revolting aunts in England. One day a mystical old man gives him a bag of magic. When he accidently spills it near the old peach tree, the most incredible things happen! "Pure fun for the whole family. A remarkable theatrical feat!"- Northampton Chronicle "Move heaven and earth to see this wonderful adaptation!"- Sunday Mercury "A first class show. If I were a child I'd scream for a ticket."- Birmingham Post Samuel French.
