BWW Reviews: PETER PAN at Georgetown Palace Is A Magical Delight
by Jeff Davis - Dec 2, 2013
Anyone who's seen a production of Peter Pan, or at least one of the televised versions starring Mary Martin or Cathy Rigby, knows that there's a moment late in the evening in which Peter turns to the audience and begs everyone to clap their hands if they believe in fairies.

But at the Georgetown Palace, that iconic moment is met with deafening applause and cheers.

BWW Reviews: PETER AND THE STARCATCHER is a Wild Ride Worth Taking
by David Clarke - Oct 16, 2013
As the British Empire was approaching it's zenith, J. M. Barrie struck a long-lasting cultural nerve with his character of Peter Pan. The imaginative boy first appeared in the 1902 novel The Little White Bird. In 1904, the character's most beloved adventure premiered as a play entitled THE BOY WHO WOULDN'T GROW UP. 111 years later audiences are still fascinated by the character. Currently, in Houston, the highly lauded and award garnering PETER AND THE STARCATCHER, a prequel to the Peter Pan story we all know, is sending Houston audiences on fanciful flights of whimsy.
