Boy Needed for "James and the Giant Peach" Show

Looking for a boy ages 7-10 for "James and the Giant Peach". Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: This heartfelt and magical musical depicts the “very true” story of the loneliest boy who ever lived, James Henry Trotter; a recent orphan who lost both his parents in a freak accident with an escaped rhino and is forced to live with his estranged vile and selfish aunts. A sad and mistreated James is visited by a mysterious man who gifts him a potion which will change his future, but before he can drink it he accidentally spills it on the roots of a barren tree. This once decrepit tree miraculously grows a singular ginormous peach bringing his wretched aunts much undeserved fame and fortune. James discovers a hole in the giant peach and decides to climb inside where he meets new friends in the shape of life size talking insects. This is when James, The Grasshopper, The Ladybug, The Centipede, The Spider, The Earthworm and his Giant Peach begin their iconic journey across the Atlantic Ocean!
