Peter Pan Flies at The Arden

Nifty Stocking Stuffer:

The Arden is one of the best in town. Ditto for its Children’s Theatre which rarely disappoints. And after his sterling performance in the lead role of Hector, in The History Boys( Alan Bennett’s coming of age tale of life and the importance of literature) well, I won’t miss anything Frank X does. This time around, he’s Captain Hook in another coming of age tale – J. M Barrie’s classic Peter Pan, newly updated for the stage by Douglas Irving. The Arden’s cast bodes well and so does director David O’ Connor who steered that amazing Seafarer-– remember?

Snow cancelled the weekend performance I was due at but hopes run high for the holidays.
