FINDING NEVERLAND - 8/17/2014

Finding Neverland: The Musical ~ Cambridge, MA ~ Pre-Broadway ~ 09.03.14

A world premiere musical!

Book by James Graham | Music and Lyrics by Gary Barlow and Eliot Kennedy

Directed by Diane Paulus | Choreography by Mia Michaels

Based on the Miramax motion picture by David Magee and the play The Man Who Was Peter Pan by Allan Knee, Finding Neverland follows the relationship between playwright J. M. Barrie (" Newsies" Jeremy Jordan ) and the family that inspired Peter Pan , or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up , one of the most beloved stories of all time.

Staged by A.R.T. Artistic Director Diane Paulus with music by U.K. pop sensation Gary Barlow ( Take That ) and choreography by Emmy Award-winner Mia Michaels (" So You Think You Can Dance "), this new musical explores the power of imagination to open up new worlds, and the pressures put upon those worlds by the inevitability of growing up.

Heads appear in some of the wider shots; however, there is a nice mix of wide/full shots and close-ups.
