Presented by Wagon Wheel Community Theatre This Tony-winning play with music upends the century-old story of how a miserable orphan becomes the Boy Who Would Not Grow Up, also known as Peter Pan. From marauding pirates and jungle tyrants to unwilling comrades and unlikely heroes, Peter and the Starcatcher playfully explores the depths of greed and despair, along with the bonds of friendship, duty, and love. A young orphan and his mates are shipped from Victorian England to a distant island ruled by the evil King Zarboff. They know nothing of the mysterious trunk in the captain’s cabin, which contains a precious, otherworldly cargo. At sea, the boys are discovered by a precocious young girl named Molly, a Starcatcher-in-training who realizes the trunk’s cargo is starstuff, a celestial substance so powerful that it must never fall into the wrong hands. When the ship is taken over by pirates led by the fearsome Black Stache, a villain determined to claim the trunk and its treasure for himself, the journey quickly becomes a thrilling adventure.
