“Peter and the Starcatcher” makes its Broadway debut on April 15, introducing audiences to the back story of Peter Pan, “The Boy Who Never Grew Up.” Though he goes through hard times as an orphan, the spirit of the show and Peter’s battles are kept nimble and light — thanks in part to the show’s fight director, Jacob Grigolia-Rosenbaum, who’s had actors kicking, screaming and swashbuckling for 12 years.
