For stage manager Mia O'Donnell, who works predominately behind the scenes, the production comes as a full-circle moment.

"My parent's last production was the first one to be held in the Kooringal High School pavilion and now I'm running it," she said.

Sharlette said the production will be a rendition of the traditional Peter Pan story, but with a playful twist.
