The Technical Magic of Peter and the Starcatcher

Peter and the Starcatcher

Peter and the Starcatcher kicks off the new season at Clarence Brown Theatre with a fun sort-of prequel to the Peter Pan story. The play is almost a musical, but not quite. It's also a challenge for the technical staff, who have to make a dizzying variety of sets, costumes and sound and lighting effects.

WUOT's Victor Agreda spoke to the director, Casey Sams, and scenic designer Christopher Pickart about those technical challenges and the challenges faced by the cast when making the play come to life. 

Peter and the Starcatcher runs through September 17 at Clarence Brown Theatre
