THIS IS A PLAY FOR ALL AGES!

A young orphan and his mates are shipped off from Victorian England toa distant island ruled by the evil King Zarboff. They know nothing of themysterious trunk in the captain’s cabin which contains a precious, otherworldlycargo. At sea, the boys are discovered by a precocious young girl named Molly,a Starcatcher-in-training who realizes that the trunk’s precious cargo isstarstuff, a celestial substance so powerful that it must never fall into thewrong hands. When the ship is taken over by pirates – led by the fearsome BlackStache, a villain determined to claim the trunk and its treasure for his own –the journey quickly becomes a thrilling adventure.

Nominated for nine 2012 Tony Awards – and winning five – Peter and theStarcatcher is a magical and hilarious romp that upends the century-old storyof how a miserable orphan comes to be The Boy Who Would Not Grow Up (a.k.a.Peter Pan). A wildly theatrical adaptation of Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson’sbest-selling novels, the play was conceived for the stage by directors RogerRees and Alex Timbers and written by Rick Elice with music by Wayne Barker.From marauding pirates and jungle tyrants to unwilling comrades and unlikelyheroes, Peter and the Starcatcher playfully explores the depths of greed and despair...andthe bonds of friendship, duty, and love.
