Like some children, some stories never grow old — especially with a little faith, trust, and pixie dust. Sound familiar?

“Peter Pan” flies back on stage at Winspear Opera House from Friday, Sept. 19, through Sunday, Sept. 21 with a bold new look.

This high-energy, family-friendly ballet blends classic magic with bright neons, edgy mohawks, and reimagined mischief in a charmingly colorful take on a timeless tale.

Ready to see Wendy, Peter, Tinkerbell (and more) dance across land, sea, and even air?
