Think of all the joy you’ll find, when you leave the world behind. . .
Next week, casts of Southborough students hope to draw audiences in to a world of imagination where kids are swept up into a world with pirates, mermaids, a “ticking” crocodile, a tempestuous fairy, and a very famous “Lost Boy”.
Trottier Middle School Drama Club’s production of Peter Pan takes place next Friday and Saturday, May 16th & 17th in the school auditorium (49 Parkerville Rd). The 6th-8th grade cast will hit the stage from 7:00 – 8:30 pm on Friday and 2:00 – 3:30 pm on Saturday.
Tickets are $8 per student/senior and $10 for general admission. They can be purchased in advance, online here.
I’m sure most readers are familiar with the basic plot. But for anyone who’s not, the website promotes:
Join the Trottier Middle School drama club as they present this superb adaptation that captures all the magic and charm of everyone’s favorite story. The Darling children love to hear of Peter Pan’s adventures during his visits through the open window of the nursery. Then one night after Nana has taken his shadow and Wendy has sewn it back on, Peter Pan and Tinker Bell whisk the children off to Neverland to be part of the adventures. Wendy, John, and Michael become friends with the Lost Boys and Princess Tiger Lily, and Wendy becomes everyone’s mother. When the evil Captain Hook captures Wendy and the Lost Boys, Peter Pan comes to their rescue. Together with the ticking crocodile, Peter Pan puts Captain Hook in his place and returns the Darling children to their home.
Updated (5/11/25 4:57 pm): I had mistakenly listed both performances as in the evening. Saturday’s is a matinee.
