It's just been announced that Olympic gymnast, Cathy Rigby, will once again take flight in her Tony nominated and Emmy Award winning role as the boy who won't grow up, Peter Pan .

Opening at Virginia's Wolf Trap in September 2011, the all new production of the musical Peter Pan will embark on a national tour of the USA followed by a possible return to Broadway in summer 2012.

Rigby's highly anticipated return to the role she has played over 3,000 times, will be documented in a two hour PBS national Pledge special. Slated to begin airing in Summer 2011, the pledge special will appear on PBS stations across the United States.

The revival of Peter Pan starring Rigby, will also become the first Broadway production to roll out a comprehensive line of licensed merchandise at major retail stores across the country.

Previous productions of Peter Pan starring Cathy Rigby have grossed over $200 million dollars in ticket sales while, receiving multiple Tony Award nominations including "Best Revival of a Musical".
