A scene from ‘Peter and Wendy,’ which opens Oct. 1 at Conejo Players Children’s Theatre in Thousand Oaks The Conejo Players Children’s Theatre presents “Peter and Wendy,” a new musical presentation of James M. Barrie’s classic story with music and lyrics by Cheryl A. Talbot, at 1 and 4 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays, Oct. 1, 2, 8 and 9 at the theatre, 351 S. Moorpark Road, Thousand Oaks.

Tickets are $8 for all seats.

The Darling household is a place of joy for Wendy (Rachel Samuels), John (Cameron Schaver), and Michael (Kyle Warner), their practical and sometimes stern father, Mr. Darling (Mark Fagundes), their loving mother, Mrs. Darling (Celeste Russi), and their canine nursemaid, Nana (Katie Parmenter), until the night Mrs. Darling finds Peter Pan (Danny Grodman), a young boy with extraordinary gifts, sneaking into the nursery to listen to the children’s bedtime stories. When Mrs. Darling tries to stop him, the boy escapes, leaving behind his shadow.

When Peter returns for his shadow, he convinces Wendy and her brothers to return with him and his pixie friend, Tinker Bell (Miranda Crane and Garianna Geiselman), to Neverland––a place where Indians, pirates, fairies and mermaids abound, and children never grow up.
