Peter Pan

February 12-21 at the Benedum

February 10, 2016

Imagination takes flight and time stands still in the mystical world of Jorden Morris’ Peter Pan. Atmospheric scenery transports audiences through starry skies to the tangled forests of Neverland and the decks of Hook’s Jolly Roger. Set to works by English composers, high-flying choreography and aerial acrobatics animate a fantastical realm where fairies flit through the sky, pirates patrol the waters and Peter Pan leads his Lost Boys in endless adventure.

Choreography: Jorden Morris | Music: Sir Benjamin Britten, Eric Coates, Sir Edward Elgar, Ron Goodwin, Montague Phillips

Accommodations include specially trained staff, quiet and activity areas in the lobby, relaxed house rules, minor adjustments to potentially startling light, sound and special effects and pre-performance guides to the performance and theater. Throughout the performance, the house lights remain dimly lit and audience members are free to come and go from their seats as needed. This performance is made possible through the support of the Edith L. Trees Charitable Trust. Tickets and additional details are available at www.pbt.org/sensory-friendly-performances.
