The beloved classic story of the boy who never grew up hits the big screen at San Juan Community Theatre for a special holiday matinee on Saturday, Dec. 16 at 2 p.m.

Captured live by the National Theatre in a co-production with Bristol Old Vic Theatre, this recorded performance of JM Barrie’s “Peter Pan” received five and four-star reviews around Great Britain. The country’s weekly magazine, Radio Times, called it “Spellbindingly imaginative. A dazzling production.”

Featuring Anna Francolini as Captain Hook and Paul Hilton as Peter, director Sally Cookson’s inventive production is a delight for children and adults alike. Plus, SJCT will feature free holiday treats for the entire family during the screening.

Tickets for “Peter Pan” are $20 for adults, $18 for SJCT members and $10 for student reserved. Due to a financial agreement with the Met, no SJCT coupons are accepted for these productions. Tickets are available online at www.sjctheatre.org or at the SJCT Box Office, 360-378-3210.
