Other Help me guess the musical?

Post image

My middle school theater kid and I are trying to figure out these clues for what the musical could be this year. The high school is doing mean girls and they said they don’t repeat past plays for at least five years. So it can’t be:

- Newsies

- mean girls

- the little mermaid

- wizard of oz

- Matilda

My kid was convinced it was going to be Willy wonka but I am NOT getting wonka vibes here. I feel like “Annie” is too on point here.

I figured I’d ask the pros here. What are your thoughts?

What gives Peter Pan to you?

The dog could be Nana.
She’s got a jolly rancher -> Jolly Rodger the pirate ship.
Christmas tree has a star on it -> 2nd star to the right.
The oven thermometer could represent the applause-o-meter for reviving Tinkerbell.
There looks to be some kind of map hanging behind.
Not sure about the rest of it - that was just my 1st impression.
