This weekend, if you venture out to the Highline Performing Arts Center, you will believe in fairies.

You will also decide that you never want to grow up, go to school, learn to be a parrot and recite silly rules.

But, most of all, you will believe that a boy can fly.

The Hi-Liners have done it again.

The South King County youth theatre organization has mounted an impressive and enchanting production of "Peter Pan," complete with stunning costumes, colorful scenery, athletic choreography, more than capable singing and children who fly.

Thanks to Flying by Foy, the Las Vegas-based company, who created Mary Martin's famous flight in 1954, Peter (Lynne Randall) and the Darling children, Wendy (Alexandra Gorski), John (Warren Morris) and Michael (Miko Curry-Edwards) soar high above the stage and truthfully exclaim, "I'm flying!"

By now, most everyone is familiar with the classic tale of the boy from Neverland who refused to grow up. Peter Pan, a magical and mysterious fellow who keeps company with fairies, orphaned boys and ticking crocodiles, suddenly shows up one night at the nursery of the Darling family.

It seems he lost his shadow during his last visit there, and has returned to claim it. Then, at Peter's invitation, Wendy and her brothers John and Michael are flying off to Neverland ("second to the right, and straight on till morning") in search of fun and adventure.

Upon their arrival in Neverland, Wendy is officially named Mother to a tribe of orphaned ragamuffins known as The Lost Boys and sets out to teach her young charges manners, good behavior and the end to the story of Cinderella.

But all is not peaceful on this magical island. Pirates roam the waters, headed by Peter's arch-nemesis, the evil Captain Hook (Lee Morris). And the beautiful Indian princess Tiger Lily (Jordan Kimmel), who is native to the island, constantly seeks out Peter's attention and affection.

Although J. M. Barrie's story will not be new to most audiences, this production will enchant youngsters and adults alike.

Lynne Randall's Peter Pan is an energetic ball of talent and fire. Whether she's flying across the stage, fighting off pirates or singing with her extraordinary voice, Randall gives a memorable performance and carries the show squarely on her shoulders.

Impeccably dressed as the genteel pirate, Lee Morris is a thoroughly enjoyable Capt. Hook, obviously having a lot of fun with his role.

In the supporting role as the pirate Mr. Smee, Brad Walker provides wonderful comic relief and helps set the tone for the hilarious band of buccaneers who loyally serve Hook.

Terrific supporting performances are given by Alex Gorski, Warren Morris and Miko Curry-Edwards as the Darling family, and by Jordan Kimmel as Tiger Lily/Mrs. Darling.

"The Unsung Hero" award definitely goes to Christina Rice, who is Nana, the Newfoundland dog who is employed as the Darling children's nurse. That is one terrific canine!

However, kudos go to the entire cast of young people in "Peter Pan," who will certainly impress you with their singing, dancing and even gymnastic feats well beyond their young years.

Director Kathleen Edwards has expertly put together a show that is probably one of the best Hi-Liners productions in recent memory.

Don't miss this one! You only have two more weekends left.

"Peter Pan" continues through Sept 21 at the Highline Performing Arts Center, 401 S. 152nd St. Burien.
