Peter and the Starcatcher, winner of the 2012 Broadway.com Audience Choice Award for Favorite New Play, is an imaginative prequel to the story of Peter Pan. Directed by Timbers and Roger Reese and written by Rick Elice, the play with music features a company of twelve actors playing more than a hundred unforgettable characters, all on a journey to answer the century-old question: How did Peter Pan become The Boy Who Never Grew Up?

Rosen recently co-wrote and co-starred in the acclaimed off-Broadway musical The Other Josh Cohen. He has previously played Smee and Black Stache in the off-Broadway run of Peter and the Starcatcher. Rosen appeared on Broadway in Guys and Dolls, The Farnsworth Invention and Spamalot.
