About Finding Neverland

Directed by visionary Tony winner Diane Paulus, Finding Neverland tells the incredible story behind one of the world’s most beloved characters: Peter Pan. Playwright J.M. Barrie struggles to find inspiration until he meets four young brothers and their beautiful widowed mother. Spellbound by the boys’ enchanting make-believe adventures, he sets out to write a play that will astound London theatergoers. With a little bit of pixie dust and a lot of faith, Barrie takes this monumental leap, leaving his old world behind for Neverland where nothing is impossible and the wonder of childhood lasts forever.

I thoroughly enjoyed the show, along with my 6-year-old son. The set’s background magically changes throughout the performance – making the story that much more entertaining. Along with an outstanding cast, and beautiful music numbers, Finding Neverland was a true joy to watch unfold on stage.

While this performance is for all ages, there is a scene that draws at your heartstrings. My 6-year-old did follow the story and understood what happened, and was sad for a moment, however, the rest of the play is joyous and full of talented performances.
