Playwright Rick Elice and director Roger Rees talk about “Peter and the Starcatcher,” an imaginative new play based on the New York Times best-selling novel by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson: Peter and the Starcatchers.  In the play, a company of twelve actors plays some 50 characters on a journey to answer the century-old question: How did Peter become the boy who would not grow up? “Peter and the Starcatcher” has been extended through Sunday, April 17, at New York Theatre Workshop.

Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson were on the Leonard Lopate Show in July 2006 to talk about Peter and the Starcatchers and their series of Peter Pan prequels. You can listen to that interview here.
