Best of Broadway: Finding Neverland

Sunday, January 26, 2020 from 07:30 pm

Bicknell Family Center for the Arts at 1711 South Homer Street

In the 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.

In addition to show tickets being available, now available are season ticket packages that will guarantee patrons the same seat for each show in the package and will save patrons more than 10 percent. Season ticket package sales will begin at 8:30 a.m. on July 15 at the PSU Ticket Office, Room 137 in the Garfield Weede Building, 1701 S. Homer, or online at https://www.pittstate.edu/office/ticket-office/, or by calling 620-235-4796.
