Most people have seen, or at least know, the story of Peter Pan, the lost boys, Captain Hook, Wendy, and all the other characters created by J. M. Barrie. Since the play’s opening in 1904, it has become a novel, a movie, a musical, and a perennial favorite. But did you ever wonder what Peter and the Lost Boys were doing before they came to Neverland? How Peter Pan and Captain Hook met? Why does the crocodile have a clock inside? How did Tinkerbell come into being? Why Wendy? In 2009, Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson, along with illustrator Greg Call published their version of the Peter Pan prequel, PETER AND THE STIRCATCHERS. It didn’t take long for Rick Elice to turn the book into a musical. It won five Tony Awards in 2012. The annotated script of the Broadway play is a delight. It begins with a trip that Lord Astor is making for Queen Victoria to deliver a very special trunk. His thirteen going-on-fifteenyear old daughter Molly accompanies him. They soon meet up with a group of orphan boys, including one who has no name and some pirates. The trunk is switched by a nasty crew who are delivering the boys to a King who, unbeknown to the boys bought them. To protect her, Lord Astor puts Molly on the boat with the boys, captained by Black Stach, which he thinks is a slightly slower merchant ship.. Meanwhile, Lord Astor’s ship had been captured by pirates. PETER AND THE STIRCATCHER answers the questions posed above and many, many more. It is a delightful adventure full of puns, twists, and inside jokes performed in an amazingly altering minimalist set. It tells how the main characters developed from who the were when they first appear on stage into who they have become in “Peter Pan.
