San Diego Junior Theatre Opens PETER AND THE STARCATCHER

San Diego Junior Theatre opened Peter and the Starcatcher this past weekend to rave reviews from their audience! This magical production - directed by Desha Crownover and featuring performances from a talented group of young San Diego performers - takes a hilarious romp through the Neverland you never knew. Based on the best-selling novels, this musical adaptation upends the century-old story of how a miserable orphan boy becomes the legendary Peter Pan. Wonderful storytelling for the entire family. The production must close this Sunday, January 20th. There are three more opportunities to catch Peter and the Starcatcher - this Friday at 7pm, Saturday at 2pm and Sunday at 2pm.
