'Peter Pan' prequel flies to La Jolla

Variety: "Characterized as a moderately scaled play with music -- rather than a big-budget tuner along the lines of Disney's stage versions of 'The Lion King' and 'The Little Mermaid' -- 'Peter' is based on the 2004 novel of the same name by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson. Plot of the book, published by Disney division Hyperion, reveals the backstory of the cast of characters of J.M. Barrie's 'Peter Pan.'"
