Jack Sweeney (l-r), Michael Friedman, Jennifer Townsend and Jordan Gilbert in Peter Pan. Phoenix Productions will present its revival of the immortal Broadway musical, “Peter Pan,” beginning Nov. 13 at the Count Basie Theatre in Red Bank. This musical depicts the adventures of Peter, a mischievous young boy afraid of growing up, as he and the three Darling children fly to the magical world of Never Never Land. Once there, the children have various encounters with people such as the nefarious Captain Hook and Peter’s gang of Lost Boys who join them on their adventures.
Phoenix’s re-creation features Jennifer Townsend as Peter, Jordan Gilbert as Wendy, Michael Friedman as John, Jack Sweeney as Michael, Mike Patierno as Captain Hook, and Patricia McCarron as Tiger Lily.
The show will run for two weekends, with performances on Nov. 13 and 20 at 8 p.m., Nov. 14 and 21 at 7 p.m., and matinees on Nov. 15 and 22 at 3 p.m. Tickets are available at the Count Basie box office at 99 Monmouth St. in Red Bank, by phone at 732-842-9000, or online at www.countbasietheatre.org.
