Peter Pan in Serangoon Gardens (2019)

21 November 2019 – 28 December 2019 @ The Ngee Ann Kongsi Theatre, Wild Rice @ Funan

Synopsis

With all the pressures of school and growing up in Singapore, Wendy and her brothers would rather be anywhere else than their stuffy bedroom in Serangoon Gardens. Enter Peter Pan, who promises to take them on an adventure of a lifetime! 

So up, up and away they go, journeying towards Neverland — an enchanted island where they never have to grow up. Along the way, they meet Ting Tong Bell’s fairy friends, bewitching mermaids and a motley crew of Lost Boys. But they soon discover the dangers lurking in Neverland… in the form of the Buaya-fearing Captain Hook and his fiendish gang of pirates! 

Directed by Ivan Heng, Peter Pan in Serangoon Gardens is a brand-new musical with a book by Thomas Lim, lyrics by Joel Tan and music by Julian Wong. Led by Pam Oei as Peter Pan and Siti Khalijah Zainal as Captain Hook, our incredible cast – comprising Singapore theatre’s brightest stars and the adorable First Stage Kids – will deliver a show that leaves you thinking Wonderful Thoughts and walking on air!

Everyone can do with a little fairy dust in their lives over the holidays. So come with your family and loved ones to close out the year on a magical high!
