Description:
This timeless fantasy about the boy who runs away to Never-Never Land to avoid growing up has thrilled audiences since the play first premiered on the London stage in 1904. The drama draws upon a number of characters and events that figured prominently in James Barrie's own life. His mother's solicitous care of her younger brother provided the germ for the character of Wendy, and Barrie's participation in a school play as part of a make-believe pirate crew helped give birth to the notorious Capt. Hook and his shipmates. In the play itself, Peter -- as the leader of a group of lost children -- is joined by Wendy, Michael and John Darling who help him search for his lost shadow and, ultimately, engage in battle with Hook, Peter's archenemy. A beguiling tale celebrating perpetual childhood, Peter Pan will captivate all who visit this exciting realm of make-believe.
