Did you love the Play That Goes Wrong? If you did, you know that you laughed your head off. Get ready to slap your knees and chortle with the rest of the audience with their new production, now in previews on Broadway, called Peter Pan Goes Wrong. I was invited with my family to experience the show recently and it was the funniest thing I’ve seen in a while. If you go see the show for the rest of this month, Neil Patrick Harris will be guest starring from now until April 30. And we’re so excited that the production is graciously giving away a family 4 pack of tickets to a performance in May!
You know the classic tale of Peter Pan? In this production, a local company, The Cornley Drama Society, is putting on a production of Peter Pan. However, things don’t go very smoothly. The cast and crew deal with technical difficulties, breaking sets, flying disasters, and cast disputes and love triangles.
Several characters play multiple parts. Now, it’s pretty obvious to the audience, but you’ll find it amusing, because things don’t go exactly right (think crazy quick costume changes multiple times). It’s a gag in itself.
Standouts include Nancy Zamit who plays Anna, a drama society member who plays Mrs. Banks, the Maid, as well as Tinker Bell. She goes between costume changes between Mrs. Banks and the Maid – and it’s very funny (because it doesn’t go exactly right).
Ryan Vincent Anderson, who you may remember from, The Play That Goes Wrong, plays The Understudy, a member of the stage crew, and also plays a couple of parts in Peter Pan.
Ellie Morris plays Lucy, a cast member who has severe stage fright and has a startling number of accidents.
There are a number of love triangles within the cast members which leads to even more shenanigans. This show is family friendly and definitely worth checking out.

Peter Pan is another one of my favorite characters. I appreciate his sense of adventure and not wanting to grow up. I think everyone has these feelings at least once in their life.
