Peter Pan and Wendy

18 November – 23 December

By J.M. Barrie

Adapted by Janys Chambers

Directed by Ben Occhipinti

A new adaptation of J.M. Barrie’s magical story about a boy who can fly and doesn’t want to grow up. One starry night, bedtime stories come alive for Wendy Darling and her younger brothers John and Michael when they meet Peter Pan and Tinkerbell and fly with them to Neverland – ‘second star to the right and straight on till morning’. They find themselves on a thrilling adventure far from home where they make friends with the Lost Boys, meet the evil pirate Captain Hook and his motley crew, and encounter a very noisy crocodile.

Join us on a fantastic festive flight full of fairy dust with lots of wonderful music, singing, dancing, and, of course, flying – this is the perfect Christmas entertainment.

Peter Pan and Wendy is perfect for children aged 5 and over. Run time is 2 hours and 5 minutes including a short interval.

Peter Pan and Wendy is presented by arrangement with Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity and Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk
