Overview

When the students of Oakmont Regional High School in rural Massachusetts staged Peter Pan as their 2018 musical, they looked to soar just like Mary Martin. Over the span of eighteen months, the cast--along with their classmates, teachers, parents, and neighbors--learned to fly in the most unexpected ways. Flight School tells the inspiring journey of this community brought together by a century-old story and the financial, technical, and social challenges these students overcame in their dramatic voyage to Neverland. You'll believe you can fly with them, too!

Peter Pan at Oakmont renewed my faith in the childlike wonder of the word 'possibility, ' and that Neverland can, in fact, exist."" --Mr. Timothy Caouette, Oakmont Regional High School"
