J. M. Barrie’s classic tale comes to life in this enchanting new musical. Join Peter Pan, Tinker Bell, and the Darling children as they soar out of the nursery, past the second star to the right, and straight on to Neverland. On that magical island where Lost Boys play and mermaids splash in the lagoon, Captain Hook and his pirates are out for revenge. And with all the imagination and pixie dust in the world, Peter and Wendy will soon discover that to live is an awfully big adventure.
