September 13, 2016

fnCHICAGO (Sept. 12, 2016) – Broadway In Chicago and Finding Neverland, the enchanting Broadway musical set to soar on tour this fall, are pleased to announce the full cast of the Tour Premiere of FINDING NEVERLAND. FINDING NEVERLAND will play the Cadillac Palace Theatre (151 W Randolph) November 22 through December 4.

FINDING NEVERLAND began rehearsals today under the visionary direction of Tony Award®-winner Diane Paulus. The cast is led by Kevin Kern (Bridges of Madison County, Wicked) and Christine Dwyer (Wicked, Rent), with Tom Hewitt (Jesus Christ Superstar, Chicago), Joanna Glushak (A Gentleman’s Guide to Love & Murder, After the Night and the Music), Jordan Cole, Finn Faulconer, Ben Krieger, Jacob Morrell, Gregory Trechel and Mitchell Wray.

Based on the Academy Award-winning Miramax motion picture by David Magee, and the play The Man Who Was Peter Pan by Allan Knee, Finding Neverland follows the relationship between playwright J.M.

Directed by Tony®-winner Diane Paulus (Pippin, Hair) with book by Olivier Award®-nominee James Graham, music and lyrics by Gary Barlow (Take That) and Grammy Award®- winner Eliot Kennedy, and choreography by Emmy Award®-winner Mia Michaels (“So You Think You Can Dance,” Cirque du Soleil’s Delirium), this new musical, packed with mesmerizing visuals, irresistible songs and plenty of laughs, is a timeless story about the power of imagination… and spectacular proof that you never really have to grow up.
