Bordentown Regional High School Theatre Club is set to present James and the Giant Peach.

The play is based on the book by Rolad Dahl, which tells the adventures of James and his insect friends. The performance is suggested for children age four through 10.

Young James Trotter lives with his cruel aunts Spiker and Sponge. He escapes his sad life when he discovers a gigantic, magical peach and its crew of friendly insects. Alongside his new-found friends, James sets off on a wild adventure he will never forget.

Senior Lexi Maiorano and Marissa Migliarino are set to play James and aunt Spiker, respectively; junior Dakota Torres
