There are, in fact, so many excellent performers in this show that it’s hard to leave out anyone. Standouts include the pint-sized scene-stealer Billy Hutton as the youngest Darling child, Michael. Clad in a red onesie, young master Hutton has great stage presence and is only in the fifth grade. Shawn Bender turns in a nice comedic performance as Hook’s sidekick Smee, and Eddie Standifer III, though unrecognizable, plays it for humor as the Darling family’s beloved dog, Nana. There’s also a not-very-scary crocodile that glides across the stage on a skateboard, so what’s not to like?.

“I became immersed in that, but I didn’t really know what the heck it was yet,” Freund says. “The blues soothed me. This kind of music is very spiritual.”. At school, he enjoyed the British Invasion music his classmates played at dances. But, at 12, his preference was for James Brown, after seeing him in “The T.A.M.I. Show” concert film. Then he got into Motown and soul music. At 16, his interest turned to early Fleetwood Mac and John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers with Eric Clapton, as well as Big Bill Broonzy, Albert King, B.B. King and Freddie King. An appreciation for jazz later blossomed, particularly swing artists such as Charlie Christian. Freund was constantly hunting down records and researching.
