This year’s Lower School Production, James and the Giant Peach, was performed for two nights in the Amey Theatre by First and Second Year students. The audience was transported on a magical journey with James and his weird and wonderful friends as they set off inside a peach on an extraordinary adventure.
A note from the director:
‘The rehearsal process was nothing short of a whirlwind of laughter, chaos, the occasional foghorn (me!), singing, flying and metamorphosing! The cast worked tirelessly on bringing the production together and demonstrated a remarkable commitment to their craft. The countless hours the cast dedicated, whilst managing to stay on top of their other commitments is a real testament to their character and work ethic. They made me laugh and despair simultaneously at almost every rehearsal and I could not be prouder of them all.
I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to each and every student, parent, and staff member who contributed to the success of the production. Everyone’s hard work, support, and enthusiasm was integral to the development of the show, and I am very grateful for the unwavering dedication that made this production possible.
To everyone that came to see the production, I hope you enjoyed watching the magical journey unfold and sharing the incredible achievements of our young performers.’
