Photo Coverage: PETER AND THE STARCATCHER Cast Celebrates 100 Performances!

Yesterday, July 11, Peter and the Starcatcher, the five-time Tony® Award-winning play written by Rick Elice and directed by Roger Rees and Alex Timbers, celebrated its 100th performance at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre. In honor of the occasion, Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg has officially proclaimed July 11, 2012 as "Peter and the Starcatcher Day" in New York City.

In his Proclamation, Bloomberg stated: 

"New York City had long been a place where children – and adults – are encouraged to have big dreams. Whether you're from the five boroughs originally, or ventured to the city from a place as far away as Neverland, this is the place where those dreams can come true. In fact, they do come true on Broadway, where one magical show can take you on the adventure of a lifetime any night of the week (and matinees on Wednesday and Saturday). Since opening on April 15, 2012, Peter and the Starcatcher has earned rave reviews from theatergoers and critics alike for its talented cast, dazzling sets, and poignant puns. As actors fly through the air, the audience flies with them to follow the story of a nameless boy who becomes Peter Pan...

Even with his extraordinary imagination, J.M. Barrie could not possibly have predicted that talented writers like Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson, and then Rick Elice, Roger Rees, and Alex Timbers, would tell the tale of Peter Pan's origin with such good humor. As the curtain rises on show number 100, and as its audience once again experiences the Neverland they never knew, we applaud the terrifically inventive cast and crew of Peter and the Starcatcher. You've made your bed, Pan. And we are so glad you've made it here in New York City."

BroadwayWorld was on hand for the celebration yesterday, and brings you photo coverage below.
