WEEKEND: ‘Peter Pan and Wendy’ opens tonight at Chimacum High School

NOTE: “Today” and “tonight” refer to Friday, April 15.

CHIMACUM — High school students will present “Peter Pan and Wendy” beginning tonight.

Performances are scheduled for Fridays through Sundays until a final performance May 1 in the Chimacum High School auditorium at 91 West Valley Road.

Doors open Fridays and Saturdays at 6:30 p.m., with the show starting at 7 p.m.

On Sundays, doors open at 3 p.m. with a 3:30 p.m. show start.

Admission is $5 at the door. Show passes that admit the holder to multiple performances are $10. Children 10 or younger get in free.

“This beloved story is retold by the drama students at Chimacum High School,” said Ellie Spitzbart, director of the Chimacum High School Drama Performance Club.

In addition to the student actors, “there will be staff cameo appearances by teachers as well as district staff members,” Spitzbart said.

“This is a wonderful show for the entire family and would be enjoyed by any and all who attend.”

Sets were designed by Alisha Bruner as her senior project, “and they are truly magical,” Spitzbart said.

This play “is more traditional to the novel by J.M. Barrie,” Spitzbart said, “but still holds the magic and possibilities of Neverland.

“If you have ever wished to never grow up, come join the CHS drama students as they bring to life all of the childhood wonders of pirates, mermaids, fairies and what it really would be like to be a Lost Boy,” she added.

“We look forward to seeing your smiling faces.”
