Close your eyes and imagine a magical evening of madcap fun with PETER AND THE STARCATCHER! In this wickedly imaginative grown-up prequel to Peter Pan, we meet a poor orphan on the high seas who is simply called "Boy" because, in the absence of a mother and a father, he was never given a name. His lonely world is turned upside down when he meets Molly, the daughter of famous Starcatcher Lord Aster. Our heroine is on a mission to save the world and protect a treasure chest filled with magical star stuff from getting into the hands of the evil and greedy pirate, Black Stache. As they travel aboard the Neverland ship headed for a faraway land, Molly and Boy learn about love, friendship and forge an unbreakable bond.

You will marvel at the limitless possibilities of make-believe as 14 actors play more than 100 unforgettable characters in this swashbuckling adventure. Best for Ages 10 and up.
