All children, except one, grow up. Fly away to Never Land with Peter, Wendy, Michael, John, Captain Hook, Smee, the lost boys, pirates and Indians, and, of course, Tinker Bell. Outcry Youth Theatre's Peter Pan: Or The Boy Who Would Not Grow Up - is packed with magic, mischief, adventure, danger, and heart.
Faithful to J.M. Barrie's original play, this new version by John Caird and Trevor Nunn starts with Barrie's play and then, through the use of a storyteller, brings in additional narration from the book. It is Peter Panas it was intended to be. Director Becca Johnson-Spinos brings her signature magical dances and intensely staged fights (with the help of fight director Adam Kullman) to the storytelling, making this a fast paced, entertaining evening that will transport you, inspire you, and change you.

"This is not children's theatre. This is theatre." Outcry Youth Theatre's motto describes how they approach each of their productions. The goal is not for the plays to be good "for kids," but for them to be as good as any adult production. Outcry Youth Theatre opened its first show, Love/Sick, in July of 2016. Outcry Youth's A Wrinkle in Time was recognized with the 2016 Broadway World Dallas Best Youth Play Award.
