'Peter and Wendy': a wondrous piece of puppetry

The Baltimore Sun

Mary Martin was an inimitable Peter Pan; Cathy Rigby imbued the eternal boy with athletic grace; and, in Baltimore, Jefferson Mays brought impish charm to J.M. Barrie's classic at Center Stage four seasons ago.

But the most creative take I've seen has to be Peter and Wendy, the magical 1996 rendition by the acclaimed New York-based avant-garde troupe Mabou Mines.

Peter and Wendy runs through June 24 at Arena Stage, 1101 Sixth St. S.W., Washington. $55-$74. Call 202-488-3300 or go to arenastage.org
