Submitted by San Juan Community Theatre and San Juan Interiors

San Juan Community Theatre’s summer camp attendees will put on Roald Dahl’s “James and the Giant Peach Jr.” from Thursday, Aug. 9-Sunday, Aug. 12 at the theater. The show will start at 7 p.m. on Thursday, Friday and Saturday and 2 p.m. on Sunday. Tickets at $6 for students, $9 for adult and Thursday is pay what you can.

The Theatre Arts for Kids’ Summer Musical Theatre Camp’s production will feature music and lyrics by the Tony-nominated songwriters Justin Paul and Benj Pasek and book by Timothy Allen McDonald. “James and the Giant Peach Jr.” is based on the beloved book by Roald Dahl and tells the story of a young orphaned child who finds a loving family in a most peculiar way. Sent by his mean, conniving aunts to chop down their old fruit tree, James discovers a magic potion which results in a tremendous peach occupied by some not-so-normal characters. From the center of the gigantic fruit, James and the unlikely crew launch a journey of enormous proportions.
