Peter Pan – Broadway’s Timeless Musical playing @ Orange County Children’s Theatre @ Huntington Beach High School Theatre Jan 12 – 21 2017

Synopsis:

Based on J.M. Barrie’s classic tale and featuring an unforgettable score by Morris “Moose” Charlap and Jule Styne with lyrics by Carolyn Leigh and Betty Comden and Adolph Green, Peter Pan is one of the most beloved and frequently performed family favorites of all time. This high-flying Tony Award-winning musical has been performed around the world and delighted audiences for 60 years.

Peter and his mischievous fairy sidekick, Tinkerbell, visit the nursery of the Darling children late one night and, with a sprinkle of pixie dust, begin a magical journey across the stars that none of them will ever forget. In the adventure of a lifetime, the travelers come face to face with a ticking crocodile, a fierce Indian tribe, a band of bungling pirates and, of course, the villainous Captain Hook.

Featuring the iconic songs, “I’m Flying,” “I’ve Gotta Crow,” “I Won’t Grow Up” and “Never Never Land,” and a rousing book full of magic, warmth and adventure, Peter Pan is the perfect show for the child in all of us… who dreamed of soaring high and never growing up. Peter Pan is a dream come true for theatres looking to spread their technical wings and entertain countless families. Taken from link

Written by Alina Mae Wilson 

Ladies and gentlemen, the apocalypse has occurred. Doomsday has come. Let chaos and sorrow reign. In Mr. Burns (playing at the Costa Mesa Playhouse), millions are dead, whole cities are abandoned, and electricity is a thing of the past. So what is at the forefront of everyone’s mind? The Simpsons. It’s actually not that surprising that survivors of a mass tragedy would steadfastly cling to pop-culture references familiar to so many people. What IS a bit startling is an evolution of such a reference, the gradual change from a mere source of entertainment to a mythology that only loosely resembles its source material.  Continue Reading
