Nicori Studios to Present James and the Giant Peach, Offers Bloomfield College Student Discount

By Alicia Cook

NiCori Studios and Productions will present The NiCori Teen Ensemble in Roald Dahl’s James and the Giant Peach at the Westminster Arts Center at Bloomfield College beginning Friday, January 27.

The production is directed by NiCori co-founder Corinna Sowers Adler, musically directed by Deborah Martin, and features choreography by Lisa Grimes.

A delightfully offbeat adaptation of the classic Roald Dahl adventure, it tells the story of a boy named James who is sent by his aunts to chop down their old fruit tree and discovers a magic potion that launches a journey of enormous proportions. The classic adventure takes a completely new twist once they land on the Empire State Building.

Performances will run Friday, January 27 at 8:00 p.m., Saturday, January 28 at 2:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. and Sunday, January 29 at 2:00 p.m. Tickets are $15 for adults and $12 for students.  For more information and for tickets, visit Nicori Studios and Productions’ website.
