A prequel to the Peter Pan story, an orphan boy aboard a ship bound for a distant island encounters a young girl named Molly who is guarding a trunk of magical starstuff. As pirates, villains, and bumbling sailors converge on the treasure, the nameless boy discovers the extraordinary powers of the starstuff and begins his transformation into the boy who will never grow up.

Peter and the Starcatcher is a play based on the 2004 novel Peter and the Starcatchers by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson, adapted for the stage by Rick Elice. The play provides a backstory for the characters of Peter Pan, Mrs Darling, Tinker Bell and Hook, and serves as a prequel to J. M. Barrie's Peter and Wendy. After a premiere in California at the La Jolla Playhouse, the play transferred to Off-Broadway in 2011 and opened on Broadway on April 15, 2012. The show ended its Broadway run on January 20, 2013, and reopened Off-Broadway once again at New World Stages in March 2013, ending in January 2014.
