SEPTEMBER 28 – NOVEMBER 21, 2010
PETER PAN - J.M Barrie’s classic tale of a mischievous boy who can fly and magically refuses to grow up is currently being staged at the ORANGE COUNTY PERFORMING ARTS CENTER. The venue is an elaborate tent erected next to the CENTER which is suspended from a white metal exoskeleton that rises more than 100 feet, leaving the interior virtually pillar free. It provides a remarkable 360 degree experience that will delight children of all ages.
Veteran theater designer Bill Dudley, part of the THREE SIXTY ENTERTAINMENT LTD. team that created this production, describes it as follows: “What we have aimed for is a fusing of some very different theatre styles. This is still a theater production. We have live actors to tell the story and we also have puppetry of a charming and surreal style, aerobatics, singing and sword fighting. What we also have is this other very special element. We take the audience up in the air and give them the felling that they’re soaring through the sky with these very familiar characters. It’s a lovely feeling.”
Personally, I am excited to see this production. I have seen PETER PAN several times before in a traditional theater environment and it is always magic. However, this special staging will bring Barrie’s story alive, allowing each of us to “fly” with Peter. I definitely recommend attending. Plan a special outing for family and friends, with this delightful production the centerpiece of your day (or evening). And make it even more special by arranging limousine transportation for your group. Please mention my blog when booking to enjoy discounted pricing.
