Director,s Note

Cast Boy: Joss Yarbrough

For my son: I grew up in your great-grandmother’s Victorian house. The attic was filled with steamer trunks and treasures, and when I was your age I played among artifacts of lives lived: I dreamed an old suitcase was a mine cart, a broken banister became my sword, and your great-grandfather’s bomber jacket turned me into Indiana Jones.

But below the surface of our story – of a time before Neverland, a pirate named Hook, or boys who could fly – run universal currents, as true to a child as is blue in the sky. PETER AND THE STARCATCHER charts a journey to assert one’s identity; to sacrifice the old for the becoming; and to find one’s belonging in an ever-changing world.

Years later, when I visited the house on 7th Street, I was swept in a wave of nostalgia – not by the presence of things packed and boxed, but by their absence. The house, empty now, held only ghosts of lives lived.

Beware, boy: there be pirates ahead, and some waters run dark, but the promises of PETER AND THE STARCATCHER may light the way. You can be what you want to be. Things are only worth what you’re willing to give up for them. And home is the place where you find yourself out of the dark.

Standing in the bare home I remembered stories I’d act out for your grandmother, and short plays I’d stage with my brother: our patio was a crumbling cliff, and our dining room the deck of a Star Destroyer. We played, we invented, and from the ordinary we imagined the extraordinary.

In this spirit of play we have approached PETER AND THE STARCATCHER, a love-letter to childlike fancy and the theatricality of storytelling.

We invite you to play; our games are fun and frolic – anarchy, mischief! And we invite you to dream. This is the thing we did. Together, let’s fly.
