Theatre to Perform Magical Prequel to Peter Pan

Truman’s Theatre Department will perform “Peter and the Starcatcher” by Rick Elice at 7:30 p.m. April 10-12 and April 16-17 with a matinee performance at 2 p.m. April 13 in the James Severns Theatre.

“Peter and the Starcatcher” is a magical prequel to Peter Pan that reimagines the origin of the beloved boy who never grows up. This wildly theatrical adventure follows a young orphan and his friends as they encounter pirates, a magical trunk of starstuff and a determined Starcatcher-in-training, Molly. With inventive staging and a playful spirit, this journey explores friendship, bravery and the magic of youth.

This play is directed by Jonathan Wehmeyer. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased at boxoffice.truman.edu. For more information, contact the Truman Theatre Box Office at 660.785.4515 between 11:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.
