Under the direction of Tom Thayer and choreographer Jessica Davidson, along with flying effects provided by ZFX, Inc., the Roxy Regional Theatre brings to life the magical world of Neverland through spectacular scenes of flying, swashbuckling and sheer fantasy.

RoBert Lindsey as Tootles and Jukes, Elena Pascullo as Mrs. Darling and Tiger Lily, Mickey Rafalski as 2nd Twin and Cookson, Colin Ryan as Smee and Liza, and Michael Spaziani as 1st Twin and Mullins. The roles of the Indians are performed by a rotating cast of twenty-one youth: Summer Aoki, Ali Arnold, Sydney Barksdale, Gavin Berlyak, Jesse Boyle, Kourtni Cottrell, Cheyenne Deibert, Ariana Desrosier, Whitney Flickinger, Darci Gautam, Jimmy Hochstetler, Vivian Hurn, Ana-Leigh Kirwin, Ashley Knowles, Katherine McCarty, Sidney McCarty, Lauren Mund, Madeline O'Connor, Nicole Powell, Christian Rieke and Amy Wyer.
