    James Trotter's life was great until a rhinoceros came and changed everything! Suddenly orphaned and sent to live with his cruel aunts, James is given a gift by a mysterious man that changes his life again. Join James on his exciting adventure inside the biggest peach the world has ever seen! James and the Giant Peach is a tale of friendship, love, sadness, and triumph. Sign Stage On Tour is a specialist in Sign Language Theatre where deaf and hearing actors perform together on stage. Whenever a character speaks, he uses Sign Language, but you'll always hear the voice too, from a different actor either on or off-stage. The stage is filled with the movement of hands and bodies, creating a magical blend of spoken English and the spatial beauty of Sign Language.

        I didn't know what to think, I mean, my daughter and I don't know Sign Language but I wanted her to see the play. After seeing it... not only was it very interesting because all the characters use sign language but they voice everything too. The show was amazing. Lot's of high energy just for the kids and lots of audience interaction with the actors during the show. William Morgan sure knows his stuff and knows how to entertain children. Collapse
