Description

Oddfellows Playhouse Teen Repertory Company presents Peter and the Starcatcher November 14 - 24. All performances will be held at Oddfellows Playhouse, 128 Washington Street, Middletown.

Peter and the Starcatcher is a Tony Award-winning comedic prequel to the cherished tale of Peter Pan, originally created by J.M. Barrie. This play, written by Rick Elice with music by Wayne Barker, delves into the origins of beloved characters such as Tinkerbell, Peter Pan, Mrs. Darling, Captain Hook, and the Lost Boys, while also introducing new faces. From marauding pirates and jungle tyrants to reluctant comrades and unlikely heroes, this wildly theatrical retelling playfully explores the depths of greed and despair, and the powerful bonds of friendship, duty, and love.

The play, which features a cast of 11 performers ages 14 - 18, is directed by Travis Kendrick-Castanho, with Music Direction by Allegra Green. Costume Design is by Renee Purdy and Kate DeAngelis, Scenic Design by Dan Schmidt, Sound Design by Joseph Getter, Lighting Design by Aaron Wescott, and Properties Design by Pam Lang.

Director Kendrick-Castanho says “Peter and the Starcatcher is a celebration of imagination and make-believe. Working with an incredible cast of creative young actors and a team of collaborative designers who fully embrace these core principles has been an absolute joy. We’ve had so much fun bringing this play to life and can’t wait to share it with an audience. My favorite aspect of theater is the unique relationship between actors and audience—the energetic exchange that occurs when performers and viewers come together to experience a story.”

Tickets are $18 for adults and $10 for kids and students. “Big Heart” tickets are available for $25 for anyone who really loves and values theater and its impact on the lives of young people.

Thursday, November 14 at 7 pm is a “Pay-What-You-Can” Preview. Performances will be at 7 pm on November 15, 16, 22, 23 and at 4 pm on Sunday, November 24.

Peter and the Starcatcher is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).
