“Peter and the Starcatcher” is ideal for the Playhouse stage – its cast of 12 plays more than 100 characters, using ingenious stagecraft to retell the story of “The Boy Who Would Not Grow Up.”
This thrilling prequel to Peter Pan is appropriate for all ages and promises to be fun for the entire family. From marauding pirates and jungle tyrants to unwilling comrades and unlikely heroes, “Peter and the Starcatcher” playfully explores the depths of greed and despair and the bonds of friendship duty and love through razor sharp wit, music, and a little bit of starstuff.
Playhouse co-founder and co-artistic director Sean Harris returns to direct “Peter and the Starcatcher.” Directing Credits at the Playhouse include IN THE HEIGHTS, PASSING STRANGE, ANGELS IN AMERICA, OF MICE AND MEN, CABARET, HAIR, and METAMORPHOSES. Melanie Guerin returns as Music Director.
