Peter and the Starcatcher
Dead Puppet Society presents
Peter and the Starcatcher

15 Oct 2024 to 27 Oct 2024

In the prequel to Peter Pan, before Neverland there was an island. Before Captain Hook, a pirate. Before Wendy, her mother Molly. Before Peter Pan, a nameless Boy.

The smash hit Broadway production, New York Times Critic’s Pick, and winner of 5 Tony Awards®, Peter and the Starcatcher is flying into Canberra for the Australian premiere, starring Pete Helliar (The Amazing Race), Colin Lane (Lano & Woodley), Alison Whyte (Frontline), Paul Capsis (La Cage Aux Folies), Olivia Deeble (Home and Away), and Otis Dhanji (Aquaman).

The theatrical masterpiece originally developed by Disney Theatrical Group, written by Rick Elice (Jersey Boys), is based on the novel by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson, and reimagined by Dead Puppet Society. This highly anticipated version of Peter and the Starcatcher blurs the lines between reality and fantasy, traversing lands of curious creatures.

Jump onboard this theatrical spectacle bursting with 100 unforgettable characters, live music and technical wizardry and discover the untold story of Neverland.
