Peter/Wendy,
by Jeremy Bloom
. Tickets are on sale now. You can order tickets online
here
(online will close 2 hours before curtain for each performance) or talk to a box office representative Mondays from 8:30 am-12:30 pm now -10/21 (360-318-9525 extension 1012). Tickets are also available at the door. “In this lyrical, atmospheric interpretation of
Peter Pan
, Jeremy Bloom strips the familiar story down to its emotional essence. Peter lures Wendy away from her nursery to the magical world of Neverland, where she joins his adventures with Tinker Bell, Tiger Lily and the menacing Captain Hook. A low-tech, inventive adaptation that pays homage to the darker themes of J.M. Barrie’s original,
Peter/Wendy
will mesmerize audiences of all ages.” Performance dates are: October 18, 19, 24 and 26 at 7:00 pm in the WFAC. Tickets are $12 for adults and $7 for students/seniors 62 and over.
