Gippsland Grammar invites the East Gippsland community to join the Lost Boys who never grow up when its students perform Peter Pan JR.

Bairnsdale Campus students from Foundation to Year 6 feature in the upcoming season with performances on Thursday, June 1 at 1pm and 7pm, and Friday, June 2 at 7pm. Tickets cost from $5-20 which can be purchased now at trybooking.com/CHSIT
In Peter Pan JR. Wendy, Michael and John Darling meet and befriend Peter Pan when the mysterious boy and a fairy named Tinker Bell enter their nursery in search of Peter’s lost shadow.
Peter whisks his new friends away to Neverland, an island with “hardly any space between one adventure and the other.” There, Peter introduces the Darling children to his fellow Lost Boys, children who – like Peter – never grow up. The crew launches into a great adventure where they encounter Brave Girls, led by the incredible Tiger Lily, and Pirates led by the dreaded Captain Hook. Challenges ensue when the Darling children are ensnared in Captain Hook’s sinister plan to seek revenge on Peter.
Peter Pan JR is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).
