Come experience The Neverland you never knew!

With an ensemble cast of twelve actors portraying over 100 roles and employing inspired stagecraft, Peter and The Starcatcher will have you hooked from the moment this funny, fantastical tale takes flight. Come be a part of the adventure and embrace the endless possibilities of imagination, friendship, and love.
