Underneath a Magical Moon

1800 N. 3rd St
Oskaloosa, IA

April 11, 2025
7:00 pm

A reimagining of Peter Pan as told by Wendy Darling…

Wendy gazes out at the night sky, dreaming of blue lagoons, magical moons, and, most of all, stories. And tonight, there’s magic in the air... Fly with Wendy and her brothers as they create the world of Neverland, where time stands still and the impossible seems possible. Even everyday objects become extraordinary under the magical moon.

This sparkling new production is scored with exquisite live music and songs, enthralling movement, and a sprinkle of fairy dust. A great 60-minute family show for children 3+.

“Every aspect of Underneath a Magical Moon has been lovingly crafted with the utmost care, and I have no doubt that the show will delight children and adults in equal measure.”
-British Theatre Guide
