All children — except one — grow up.
Captured live at the National Theatre, a recorded performance of JM Barrie’s much-loved tale screens in cinemas around the world.
When Peter Pan, leader of the Lost Boys, loses his shadow, headstrong Wendy helps him to reattach it. In return, she is invited to Neverland, where Tinker Bell the fairy, Tiger Lily and the vengeful Captain Hook await. A riot of magic, music and make-believe ensues.
A delight for children and adults alike, Sally Cookson directs this wondrously inventive production, a co-production with Bristol Old Vic theatre.
“Peter Pan” is a delight for families and people of all ages. Captivating and funny, it has elements to delight and entertain both kids and adults. The production is true to JM Barrie’s story, filled with all of his famous characters — Peter Pan, the Lost Boys, Captain Hook, the pirates, the mermaids, Tinkerbell, Tiger Lilly and more — with some surprise new twists. And there is plenty of flying and inventive staging.
