Newburgh Free Academy | Peter and the Starcatcher


Newburgh Free Academy presents: Peter and the Starcatcher. View the playbill by clicking this link. View and download photos of this production for free by clicking this link

The show is a prequel to Peter Pan. Tony-winning Peter and the Starcatcher upends the century-old story of how a miserable orphan comes to be The Boy Who Would Not Grow Up (a.k.a. Peter Pan). A wildly theatrical adaptation of Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson’s best-selling novels, the play was conceived for the stage by directors, Roger Rees and Alex Timbers, and written by Rick Elice, with music by Wayne Barker. From marauding pirates and jungle tyrants to unwilling comrades and unlikely heroes, Peter and the Starcatcher playfully explores the depths of greed and despair... and the bonds of friendship, duty and love.

There are 90 general admission seats available for each show in the NFA Black Box Theatre. There are no reserved seats. Seats are given on a first come, first served basis when doors open for each show in the NFA Black Box Theatre.
