Upends the Story of How a Miserable Orphan Becomes the Legendary Peter Pan

A young orphan and his mates are shipped off from Victorian England to a distant island ruled by the evil King Zarboff. They know nothing of the mysterious trunk in the captain’s cabin, which contains precious, otherworldly cargo. At sea, the boys are discovered by a precocious girl named Molly, a Starcatcher-in-training who realizes that the trunk’s cargo is starstuff, a celestial substance so powerful that it must never fall into the wrong hands. When the ship is taken over by pirates--led by the fearsome Black Stache, a villain determined to claim the trunk and its treasure for his own--the journey quickly becomes a thrilling adventure.

Per the publisher, this show is recommended for ages 8 and up. We encourage families with younger children to research the show to determine individual comfort levels prior to attending.

The Gezon Auditorium is located in the Spoelhof University Center on the campus of Calvin University.
