Barrie’s novel, Peter and Wendy, will examine the connections of our childhood escapes with the roles we inhabit as adults.

ABOUT THE VASSAR DRAMA DEPARTMENT EXPERIMENTAL THEATER
The Experimental Theater is a place to explore theories learned in the classroom and to experiment with theatrical forms. In the tradition of pioneering stage director Hallie Flanagan, students are encouraged to experience and experiment with all aspects of the theater. Flanagan, who accepted a position to teach drama at Vassar in 1925, founded the Experimental Theater following her visit to the theaters of Europe in 1926 on a Guggenheim Fellowship (http://drama.vassar.edu).
