“It's not on any chart, you must find it with your heart’’
Peter Pan
January 9-13, 2008 • Victoria Theatre For years, Peter Pan in all its various renderings has allowed its audiences and readers to escape to the childhood whimsy of Neverland, and Muse Machine’s production of the musical took special measures to stay true to that idea. In most productions of the stage version, Peter’s band of mischievous Lost Boys is played by fully grown female actors, just like Peter himself is. But Muse’s production opted instead to cast a real-life band of rowdy, rambunctious young boys for the roles. The choice gave the Lost Boys’ scenes a genuine playfulness that other productions sometimes lack, a frantic kind of energy that left the audience hungry whenever the youngest cast members left the stage. This kind of energy injected into the already fantastical story of a boy who never grows up left everyone who saw it feeling a little more carefree, and in the case of the grown-ups in the house, maybe even a little younger.
