Local children will bring to life Peter Pan, Tinkerbell, Captain Hook and a bungling band of pirates in Youth Theatre Carson City’s staging of J.M. Barrie’s classic tale, “Peter Pan.”
The show, directed by Andie Anderson, Youth Theatre Carson City founder, features the iconic songs “I’m Flying,” “I’ve Gotta Crow,” “I Won’t Grow Up,” and “Never Never Land.”
The cast is comprised of youth ages 5-19. Leading the lineup as Peter Pan is Alexa Haight, 15, a student at Carson High School. Also featured are Cassia Giustra, 14, as Wendy; Sydney Berg, 12, as John; Lilly Baum, 7, as Michael; and Joseph Campbell, 17, and Michael Frenchu, 19, who share the role of the villainous Captain Hook.
