Peter and the Starcatcher provides a humorous and fantastical backstory for the beloved character of Peter Pan and his arch-nemesis Captain Hook. In this wickedly imaginative play, based on the 2004 children’s novel co-written by humorist, Dave Barry and suspense writer, Ridley Pearson, we meet a poor orphaned child on the high seas simply called Boy because, in the absence of a mother and a father, he was never given a name. His sad and lonely world is turned upside down when he meets Molly. The daughter of famous Starcatcher Lord Astor, our heroine is on a mission to save the world and protect a treasure trunk filled with magical star stuff from getting into the hands of evil and greedy pirate Black Stache. As they travel aboard the Neverland ship headed for a faraway land, Molly and Boy learn about love and friendship and forge an unbreakable bond.

From marauding pirates and jungle tyrants to unwilling comrades and unlikely heroes, PETER AND THE STARCATHCER playfully explores the depths of greed and despair…and the bonds of friendship, duty and love.
