Summer Musical
ABOUT THE SHOW-
Based on the Academy Award-winning motion picture and the play The Man Who Was Peter Pan, Finding Neverland follows the relationship between playwright J.M. Barrie and the family that inspired "Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn’t Grow Up." Finding Neverland features music and lyrics by Gary Barlow and Eliot Kennedy and a book by James Graham.
J.M. Barrie, a struggling playwright, encounters a widowed mother, Sylvia Llewelyn Davies and her four sons in Kensington Park. As Barrie befriends the family, he is inspired by their adventures, particularly Peter, who is reluctant to play due to his grief. Barrie helps him to learn to play again and becomes inspired to create a new art form: children's theatre. But who will pay to see a play about children? Who will play these characters? And how will they make Peter Pan fly?

Join us this summer for high energy, joy filled mornings at Musical Theatre East. Our themed camps run Monday through Friday from 9:00AM to 12:00PM and are open to students ages 5-10.
Each week, campers will sing, dance, act, play theatre games, and build confidence while learning songs and choreography that coordinate with the theme of the week. Every camp concludes with a fun end of week "sharecase" where families can see what their performers have been working on.
Register for one, two, three, or all four camps. Each week is a brand new adventure.
Space is limited. Secure your spot now!
