Four literary heroines of the nineteenth century set conventionalism ablaze when they turn down marriage proposals from their equally famous gentlemen callers. What results is a confluence of love, anger, grief, and bloodshed, as the ensemble struggles to reconcile romantic ideologies of the past with their modern ideas of courtship. Everything you’ve learned about love from the pages of Pride and Prejudice, Wuthering Heights, Jane Eyre, and Little Women is turned upside down in this grand theatrical battle royale.

Charting Neverland offers a fresh perspective on the beloved tale of Peter Pan, drawing audiences into an imaginatively re-envisioned Neverland. This musical adaptation ventures into the untold stories of its cherished inhabitants, exploring the individual worlds within Neverland that mirror the limitless creativity found in the minds of children. Each version of Neverland, as unique and boundless as the child who dreams it, serves as the backdrop for our characters' origins, adventures, and the deep connections that unite them.
Through innovative storytelling, an ensemble focus, and a contemporary folk soundtrack, Charting Neverland seeks to enchant today's audiences. Far more than a mere retelling, this production reawakens the magical world of Neverland as a place of inclusion, empowerment, and anti-colonial narratives. It invites a reimagining that respects the fluidity and vastness of children's imaginations, promising a journey filled with magic, music, and the exploration of themes that resonate across ages. This work is currently evolving, with a workshop and reading poised to bring it to life this summer, offering a glimpse into the creative process behind redefining a classic for a new generation.
