The two later appeared in several performances of the musical televised in the ‘50s and early ‘60s by NBC-TV. The show opened on Broadway starring Mary Martin as Peter Pan and Cyril Richard as Capt. Jim Loeffler, Pierce College theater manager, says the same company that created the flying effects for the original production of the Broadway musical in the early 1950s, and for most of the productions since, will handle the flying chores for the college show as well. Like Mary Martin, Sandy Duncan, Cathy Rigby and others who have played the role, Pierce’s Pan will soar across the stage with the help of cables and rigging. Peter Pan-in Pierce College’s production of the musical of the same name opening this Friday-will fly, but not with the help of fairy dust. * The “Star Trek Goes Country” Celebrity Press Party for the sixth annual Hollywood Charity Horse Show Reining Royale at 7:30 Tuesday at the Cowboy Palace Saloon, 21635 Devonshire St., Chatsworth. Rustigian says that although it’s officially called a press party, the public is welcome to hear the music, see the celebrities, eat the barbecue and support the cause. The horse show, taking place at the Los Angeles Equestrian Center in Burbank on April 27-28, is a fund-raiser for three programs: Ahead With Horses, a therapeutic riding group for handicapped children Directions for Youth, which helps at-risk youngsters and teenagers and Futures for Children, an organization dedicated to helping Native-Americans. “We raised over $50,000 last year.” Shatner, who owns quarter horses at ranches in Kentucky and Simi Valley, has combined his love for the animals with raising money for several worthy causes-all involving children. “I started the horse show as a charitable event,” Shatner says. But daring to go where no shameless celebrity has gone before, Shatner says he’s willing to do just about anything to raise money for “the kids.” The party will be held at the Cowboy Palace Saloon in Chatsworth on Tuesday.
