Half-price seats to 'Peter Pan' with puppets
Peter Pan still won't grow up as you'll see in this Center for Puppetry Arts staging, a new musical adapted and directed by the Michael Haverty (if his name's attached, you can be be sure it'll be good). Adventures abound as the Darling children romp with the Lost Boys, rescue the resourceful Princess Tigerlily and battle the nefarious Captain Hook. Following the novel’s classic episodes, "Peter Pan" uses rod puppets to celebrate the carefree spirit of childhood and the value of following your dreams. Hurry, the show is in its final week!


Twice the fun, half the price at 'Xanadu'
Embrace the disco ball and soak up the sunny "Xanadu," a surprise hit during Broadway's 2007-08 season. This 90-minute sendup of the 1980 Olivia Newtown-John movie roller-skates its way onto the Actor's Express stage with a heady combo of camp, comedy, tunes, questionable fashion and bad hair-dos. The plot (if it matters):  A Greek muse with an Australian accent descends from Mount Olympus to modern-day California to help a hunky young man open a roller disco. Xanadu will have you dancing', believing in magic and feeling mellow.


Hit the 'Fairway' for only $12.50 per ticket
Ken Ludwig ("Lend Me a Tenor," "Moon Over Buffalo") hits a hole-in-one with his tribute to the great English farces of the 1930s and '40s. Love and money are in the rough at the Quail Valley Country Club in "Fox on the Fairway," at Lawrenceville's Aurora Theatre throughout May. Expect mistaken identities and over-the-top romantic shenanigans en route to a happy ending. This comedy promises to hit the sweet spot.
