Magical Theatre in Magical Surroundings

Roald Dahl's fantastic story gets the Illyria treatment in this colourful summertime production for children.

Join James Henry Trotter and his two horrible aunts Spiker and Sponge for a deliciously twisted and quirky tale of adventure, friendship, daring and dreams!

James is an orphan who is sent to live with his two terrible aunts. But when the peach tree in the garden sprouts a single peach which grows and grows and grows, James befriends some very peculiar insects, breaks free from the clutches of his aunts and embarks on the adventure of a lifetime. David Wood's adaptation captures all the fun and excitement of this superb children's classic, and includes plenty of opportunities for participation!

Illyria's Theatre for Children has one principal aim: great storytelling. Brightly costumed and accompanied by live music, the shows address their target audience in an intelligent, unpatronising and entertaining way.

Illyria does not espouse the pc view that Theatre for Children should be cleansed of cruelty, peril, or even death. We know that children are a demanding audience, and can sniff out such dishonesty. Our shows often deal with these topics in a sensitive but direct manner. Perhaps that is why they are so popular!

James and the Giant Peach is suitable for children aged 5 to 9.
