La Salle’s Theater Department had the opening night of its fall show, “Lost Girl” by playwright Kimberly Bellower on Friday, Nov. 3. The department put on the production 6 times, concluding on Nov. 10.
“Lost Girl” is a sequel to the well known story of Peter Pan, where instead the focus is on Wendy’s return from Neverland as she battles with living in a place where there is no magic and no Peter. She struggles as she realizes she left a piece of herself with him — a kiss. The story follows Wendy’s search for her kiss and to therefore become whole again.
Theater teacher Mr. Michael Shelton chose “Lost Girl” for the writing and message of the script. He admired the story’s universal theme given from a female lens.
“It’s not a show about female leads,” he said. “It’s a universal [throughline] everybody can be impacted by — the hope of the message from the female lens.”
Mr. Shelton believed the play was successful due to the reactions of the crowd.
“Not only did people seem to enjoy it, but there were several people that really, really got what we were doing,” he said.
Senior and Co-Stage Manager Phoebe Sandholm was happy with the actor and crew bonds that were formed throughout this production. “There [were] a lot of close connections made during the show,” she said.
Sandholm is looking forward to the upcoming winter play, but knows it won’t be easy.
“I’m very excited for it, but being student-run as it is, it’s going to be a lot,” she said.
