Broadway Workshop will present our first ever JUNIOR MAIN STAGE James and the Giant Peach.

This production will incorporate full staging, costumes, microphones, sets, lights and all the magic that goes into our yearly Main Stage production. This brand new musical by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul will enchant audiences and keep our cast singing for years to come! We cant think of a better way to kick off this program then with this amazing musical. Broadway Workshops production of James and the Giant Peach will have only ONE cast of student actors between the ages of 8-14 and will mark the first ever NYC staging of this new musical!

When James is sent by his conniving aunts to chop down their old fruit tree, he discovers a magic potion which 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.
