Posted: 8/27/05 at 11:44amI definitely plan on seeing this one. I saw it when it was here at the Marquis in 96 (I think that was the year) and it was amazing - took my breath away and really touched me. I only hope it plays as well at the Garden - thats a strange space for a show like this. I have to take joeyjoe to see it, because he's never seen it live. It is one of my favorite shows of all time.

Posted: 8/27/05 at 3:48pmI saw it a few months ago, and the whole show seems to be fresher than it is on the DVD... Even Cathy Rigby is more energetic... and Howard is phenominal as Hook... YES, it's something everyone show see live at least once in your lifetime.

the show is timeless. The theatre at madison sq. though is a little bit of a disappointment. It's to bad that for her farwell they couldn't have gotten her into a great old theatre, or if not old at least more traditional

Posted: 8/27/05 at 8:09pmI didn't have much interest in this show until the tour began and really fell in love with it.

Peter Pan will always hold a special place in my heart- it was my first ever show in 91 or 92 with Kathy Rigby. Its one of my favorite musicals. Have you ever heard some of the songs cut from the show?
They are beautiful!
I think I will go see it- is it a limited engagement?

Posted: 8/29/05 at 7:47pmIt was my first show too...which made it even more special when I played Wendy in a production a few years ago. It's a very special musical to me and I can't wait to see it again!

Gonna miss Howard, he was great. Saw him at the beginning of the tour.
Anyone know who is going to take his place?
Stardust, where did you play Wendy?

Posted: 8/30/05 at 12:01amIt's ridiculous amounts of fun to do (I've played a pirate in the ensemble, and Captain Hook himself) and fun to watch... if it's done correctly... I'm seeing the tour with Cathy when it comes through Syracuse though, and am ridiculously excited.
