PETER AND THE STARCATCHER, the five-time Tony Award-winning musical, will play the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall tonight, February 12 at 8pm.

Before Wendy… before he was Captain Hook… before a boy was given the name Peter Pan…and before there was a Neverland, there was a Starcatcher Apprentice named Molly, a pirate named Black Stache, and a nameless orphan…and they are about to be thrown together in a perilous (and wildly hilarious) adventure on the high seas. But, of course none of this actually exists, unless you are prepared to use your imagination.

PETER AND THE STARCATCHER continues the Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park's Marx Theatre season with an inspired, hilarious and epic Peter Pan prequel that mixes grown-up fun for adults, ample silliness for children and storytelling magic for the kid in us all. The captivating winner of five Tony Awards, adapted for the stage by Rick Elice from the Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson novel, will bring Neverland to new life March 7 through April 4.

Theatre, more than any other medium, has the ability to create magic and seldom has more magic been created on a stage than in the Zach Theatre production of PETER AND THE STARCATCHER. While the production is advertised as suitable for ages 6 and up, it is the adults who are in for the real treat with this whip-smart, endlessly inventive and deliciously campy and snarky production. There's no shortage of delights in store for the younger set, but it is the inner child of the adults in the audience who are in store for a marvelous roller coaster of a ride.
