HDTV GOOD NEWS

The Rancho Cucamonga Community Theatre announces the opening of the family-friendly musical, Peter Pan, opening July 10th and playing Saturdays and Sundays through July 18th at the Lewis Family Playhouse at the Victoria Gardens Cultural Center.

In this delightful musical offering, Peter Pan and Tinkerbell lead the three Darling children over the rooftops of London and away to Neverland, the island where the Lost Boys, Tiger Lilly and the Indians play.

Magic and mischief is in the air but if villainous Captain Hook and his band of pirates have their way, before long someone will be swimming with the crocodiles. This award winning score features memorable favorites “I Won’t Grow Up,” “Neverland,” “I’m Flying,” and “I Gotta Crow.”

Peter Pan’s stage direction is by Kevin Slay with vocal direction by Ronda Rubio and choreography by Janet Renslow. ZFX Flying Illusions will supervise Peter Pan flying effects.

The cast stars local performer Maggie Anderson in the title role as the boy who wouldn’t grow up. Other featured performers in the cast include Vil Towers as Captain Hook, Genevieve Ellis as Wendy, James Ellis as Smee, Ryan and Nathan Lightfoot as Michael and John Darling, Kelley Squires as Mrs. Darling, Lauren Bell as Liza, and Andria Terrazas as Tiger Lilly. The cast also includes Mike Rangel, Josh Bunch, Emily Martin, Michael Vandie, Quinton Goodman, Jaylen Baham, Gabrielle Gutierrez, Erika Jenko, Jack Freedman, Charles Feuerstine, Dallin Jackson, La Tashijuana Daniel, Megan Hill, Addison Aguilara, Ron Burch, Gabriel Combs, Drake Davis, Raysa Rubio, Adam Chanthamynavong, Ammon Cruz, De’Richard Rayford, Erik Strong, Janelle Gaglio, Bryan Martinez, Cory Moore, Dominique Petite-Frere, Pierre Petit-Frere, Kelsey Tanaka, Megan Kiehl, Marc Millares, Jessica Mogi, Miguel Quirarte, Allison Hill, Kristin Leeper-Tanaka, Savannah Sanabia and Kellen Ford.
