The new musical “Finding Neverland” at the American Repertory Theater in Cambridge is filled with joy and laughter. The story, about “Peter Pan” creator J.M. Barrie, has a heartfelt theme that reminded everyone in the audience that no matter how old you are everyone has a child within them.

Although it is probably the first time the audience has heard these songs, the actors made everyone feel as if they had heard them their whole life, making it hard to resist to hum along.
The set changes were also like no other! One second you were in a suburban home and the next you were off in an adventure with Captain Hook.
The show is a must see and the tickets go fast! “Finding Neverland” is relatable to everyone who has ever had a childhood, so don’t miss out!
