Fox9 Dayton reports that married couple Lori and Greg Bunce have been staging backyard musicals for 10 years. What originally began as a fun family activity has evolved into Bunce BackyaRD Productions. This year's selection, Peter Pan, features a full orchestra, rigging for flying, and a new venue in a friend's backyard.

These fully staged productions are free, though a donation is suggested.

Past productions have included Oliver, Beauty and the Beast, Fiddler on the Roof, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Tarzan and Seussical.

Some performances have had a turn out of over a thousand people.

"That's what's fun," said Bunce to Fox9. "People come and they are surprised. They think it's going to be this little curtain opens, there's some puppets. It's always a surprise and people love it."
