The BFG (Big Friendly Giant)
Based on the book by Roald Dahl
Adapted by David Wood
Directed by Cheryl L. Kaplan

When Sophie is whisked away from the orphanage in the middle of the night, she plunges into a thrilling adventure with the gentle, lovable, Big Friendly Giant. Visits to Giant Country, blowing dreams into children's bedrooms and eating snozzcumbers are all part of the BFG 's world, but so are Childchewers, Bloodbottlers, and Fleshlumpeaters . Join Sophie for a whizzpopping time as she ventures into Dahl's fantastical world and learns about the perils of being selfish and the rewards of true friends.
