PETER & THE STAR CATCHER
LIFE IS SHORT
Sail on the high seas for a life-changing adventure in this delightful grown-up prequel to Peter Pan. Lord Aster and his precocious thirteen-year-old daughter Molly set sail for the Kingdom of Rundoon on a secret mission for the Queen of England; they must destroy a trunk filled with starstuff. While her starcatcher father journeys with the real treasure on a swift ship, Molly and a decoy trunk are placed on a slower, safer ship, The Never Land. Onboard, Molly meets three young orphans led by a wary, unnamed boy. When she discovers that the trunks have been switched, Molly and her new pal gallantly set off to fulfill the mission themselves. Soon all the elements of the classic story appear – a gang of pirates and their villainous captain, menacing island natives, and a crocodile. The nameless orphan slowly learns to trust the stalwart Molly, becoming the enduring and beloved hero who will never grow up.
This hilarious collection of short plays is a comical look at relationships from childhood to old age. Some are charming and light, others dark and absurdist, but all eight gleefully portray people at their worst. And sometimes their best.
