About the Performance

Underneath a Magical Moon is a play that reimagines the classic story of Peter Pan. Fly with Wendy Darling and her brothers as they create the world of Neverland, where time stands still, and the impossible seems possible. Wendy is the owner of stories, a mother to the Lost Boys, a believer in fairies, and a young girl with her feet firmly on the ground. Even everyday objects become extraordinary under the magical moon.

Underneath a Magical Moon is a sparkling new production written by international award-winning writer Mike Kenny and directed by Wendy Harris. This sparkling production boasts exquisite music by Ivan Scott, enthralling movement by Holly Irving, and a sprinkle of fairy dust for children and families to enjoy.

For over 30 years, Tutti Frutti Productions has created imaginative, visual, and meaningful story-based theatre for children. They specialize in bringing fantastic, distinctive, and carefully crafted shows to children and families worldwide. Tutti Frutti also offers online and community programming for children in Leeds, UK, where they are based.
