“Peter Pan: Or, the Boy Who Would Not Grow Up” World Premiere Adaptation at Genesius Theatre

Recurring event see all

April 10 @ 7:30 pm 9:30 pm

A world premiere adaptation of the beloved story, with script by Tony-nominated Douglas Carter Beane and music by Broadway’s Lewis Flinn. Funny, poignant, and entertaining for audiences of all ages.

Adapted from the 1905 American Version by J.M. Barrie, “Peter Pan, or the Boy Who Would Not Grow Up,” is a freshly modernized and inventive adaptation by Douglas Carter Beane with a sparkling original score by Lewis Flinn. This family-friendly production invites audiences of all ages to partake in the most defiant act against growing up: using their imagination.

Imaginative, touching, silly, and laugh-out-loud-funny all in one, this adaptation utilizes puppetry, practical lifts, music, and multi-role-casting to create theatre magic worthy of Tinkerbell and her fairy friends. Take flight from Reading, PA to Neverland!
