Town & Country Players Presents Peter and the Starcatcher

Peter and the Starcatcher is a play based on the 2004 novel Peter and the Starcatchers by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson that provides backstory for the characters Peter Pan, Mrs. Darling, Tinkerbell and Captain Hook.

In Peter and the Starcatcher a young orphan and his mates are shipped off from Victorian England to a distant island ruled by the evil King Zarboff. They know nothing of the mysterious trunk in the captain’s cabin, which contains a precious, other-worldly cargo. At sea, the boys are discovered by a precocious young girl named Molly (Julie Peterson), a Starcatcher-in-training who realizes that the trunk’s precious cargo is starstuff, a celestial substance so powerful that it must never fall into the wrong hands. When the ship is taken over by pirates — led by the fearsome Black Stache (Jim Moore), a villain determined to claim the trunk and its treasure for his own — the journey quickly becomes a thrilling adventure.

The intimacy of the Town & Country Players theater is sure to make everyone in the audience feel as if they are aboard the ship and a part of the adventure!
