Directed By: Sam Komay

Neverland is turned on its head in this clever blend of It’s a Wonderful Life and J.M. Barrie’s classic tale. When the
Lost Boys go missing, Peter Pan wishes he never came to Neverland. Unfortunately, his wish is granted by Tinkerbell’s unkempt fairy cousin, Stinkerbell, and Peter is given a glimpse of what the world would be like without him. Seeing the Lost Boys now employed by Captain Hook (now known as Captain Two Hands), the obnoxious Darling children, and a Tinkerbell who’s lost her wits, Peter finally realizes the importance of his existence — and how it really is a wonderful Neverland.
Director’s Note: Directing It’s a Wonderful Neverland has brought me so much joy at the end of a crazy, busy fall season. These talented kids challenge me in so many ways, including remembering all of their names! Sorry Rylie & Taylor, but please stop sitting next to each other! 🙂 Every night the cast has time to ask questions and they always surprise me. Sometimes they ask about theatre or our show, and other times they just want to know more about me & Jenny Heller. Oh Jenny Heller … I don’t know how you run herd on 2 shows at the same time and stay sane, although I hope the treats help! Having you as my right-hand woman has lifted such a burden off of me and I appreciate you, friend. Robin, I can’t thank you enough for stepping up and jumping in with both feet. Once again we made a great team! Karin – I have loved sharing this adventure with you. You are a natural director and it’s easy to see what an impact you are having on the kids. ~ Sam Komay
