4 Dining Venues in DTLA
Opening night for the mischievous multi-award winning comedy “PETER PAN GOES WRONG” brought a handful of stars to the Ahmanson Theatre. Retired gymnast Cathy Rigby, one of the most popular Peter Pan’s on Broadway, walked the red carpet with her family before seeing the show.
Now the direct from Broadway engagement, “PETER PAN GOES WRONG” is filled with mischief, mishaps and mayhem! This West Coast premiere has performances starting August 8 through September 10, 2023.
Emmy winner Bradley Whitford of “The West Wing” and “The Handmaid’s Tale,” appeared in the role of Francis, a member of the ‘Cornley Drama Society’ who portrays The Narrator in “Peter Pan,” the night we viewed the performance. He will continue until August 20, and then handsome actor Daniel Dae Kim, star of “Hawaii 5-0,” “Lost,” and “The Good Doctor” will take on the roll from August 30 – September 10.
Those looking to dine before the performance, can park for $10 in the Music Center parking structure and walk to four popular dining venues.
