My family recently attended a night of players at our son’s high school. We were treated to the unexpected delight of The Barter Players’ Peter Pan. As an adult viewer I can honestly say that it was one of the highest quality performances I’ve ever had the pleasure of participating in. I say participating on two counts: one, there were times that the audience is asked to interact with the play, so seamlessly executed the illusion is only heightened, in fact I felt everyday reality had been left behind; two, the performances were so in sync, natural, in tune that from the Darling nursery to Neverland and back it felt so real, so loved by the performers, authentic connection was made, I believe not only with myself but the entire theater, and we ‘all’ were in the play. I cannot say enough, and wish I could say more. I have enjoyed theater and loved movies my entire life. I have never enjoyed anything quite so much.
