ABOUT
Based on the novel by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson, Peter and the Starcatcher follows young Molly Aster and her mission to assist her father in keeping the mysterious secret of Starstuff safe from the rest of the world. On her voyage, she befriends a ragtag group of orphans, one of which hates grownups and just wants to stay a boy for a while. But when a crew of fearsome and moustached pirates attack, Molly and her new friends must work together to keep the Starstuff out of the hands of the greedy marauders-- as well as survive being shipwrecked on an island inhabited by jungle natives and singing mermaids. The Strawberry Hill Players are thrilled to present this story of friendship, duty, and love and discover just how The Boy Who Would Not Grow Up came to be!
