James Returns to Lambert
     
   The award-winning Acting Troupe of Lambert brings full version of James and the Giant Peach to stage! After winning second place in their regional one-act competition with James and the Giant Peach, The Acting Troupe of Lambert is thrilled to perform the full version for the community. Based on author Roald Dahl's fantastical tale of a boy, his insect friends and their amazing journey across the ocean on a giant piece of fruit, this is musical for the whole family to enjoy! This delightful adaptation includes original music by Tony Award nominated lyricists Benj Pasek and Justin Paul and book by Timothy McDonald. 
          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. The dangerous voyage is a success, but the adventure takes a whole new twist once they land on the Empire State Building. 
         Artistic Direction/Choreography will be under the direction of Lambert High School’s Theater Department Director, Ms. Carly Berg and Music Direction under Lambert High School’s Chorus/Music Theory Director, Mr. Ryan Wason. Performances will be held at Lambert High School Auditorium February 2 at 7:00 PM February 3 at 7:00 PM February 4 at 2:00 and 7:00 PM Tickets may be purchased online at atldrama.com or at the door Adults: $15/Students $10 Presented through special arrangements with Music Theatre International (MTI) www.mtishows.com.
