Aphrodite and Peter Pan: Magic At Arvada Center For The Arts

ARVADA, CO – Magical realism comes to the Arvada Center for the Arts in June with performances of Peter Pan a la ballet and a reprise of Wonderbound's Aphrodite's Switchboard in June.

Peter Pan

Friday and Saturday June 15-16 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, June 17 at 2 p.m.

Peter Pan, a kid-friendly ballet and concert extravaganza, will be performed this weekend by the Arvada Center Academy dancers. Of course, the tale of the flying Darling children and their Pooka-Peter Pan inspires every choreographer to figure out how to pull it all off, and ACA is no different. Choreographers have "re-imagine how [author] J.M. Barrie created the story," and set their skills loose on depicting Never Land, and the war between the Lost Boys and Captain Hook.

Local school children, some from Lincoln Academy Charter School, will perform in the production, which only costs $10.
