Adventure Theatre is launching its 2016 year with the musical James and the Giant Peach. Based on the popular book by Roald Dahl, the production is also celebration of the author’s 100th birthday. And one lucky KFDC reader will be celebrating even more when they win a Family 4-Pack of tickets in this giveaway!
James and the Giant Peach at Adventure Theatre
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. This wickedly fun show features a tuneful score by the TONY Award-nominated team of Pasek and Paul and a curiously quirky book by Timothy Allen McDonald.
James and the Giant Peach will run at Adventure Theatre February 14 – April 5. Recommended for all ages, tickets are $19.50 and can be purchased online or by calling 301.634.2270. Goldstar has discount tickets for select dates. You can also try to win a Family 4-Pack in the giveaway below.
