Pixies & Pirates! A special afternoon with the costumed cast of Peter Pan!

Peter Pan's Pixies and Pirates - a special afternoon for children April 21 with the Peter Pan cast

All the characters from Wauwatosa West's upcoming production of Peter Pan - including Peter, Wendy, John, Michael, Captain Hook and the Lost Boys - are counting down to this Saturday when they will get to meet and visit with all the mini "Pixies and Pirates" from the community.

Children ages 3 to 10 years old and their parents,  grandparents, babysitter or sibling (16 and over please) are invited to wear a pirate or Peter Pan costume or  favorite PJs to join in the fun at "Pixies and Pirates" from 1 - 2:30 p.m., Saturday, April 21 at Wauwatosa West High School, 11400 W. Center St.

Activites include a themed treasure hunt for children to visit different stations and do a variety of fun activities, mingle and take photos with the cast, catch a few songs from the upcoming production and munch on delicious treats. Tinkerbell will make a special appearance to visit with all the children, too. The event is a fundraiser for the Wauwatosa West Trojan Players theater program and a promo for the upcoming performances of Peter Pan.

Peter Pan opens April 27 at Wauwatosa West with performances over two weekends at 7 p.m., April 27, 28, May 4 and 5 and a Sunday matinee at 2 p.m. April 29.
