From the original novel by J .M. BarrieAdapted by Stephen SharkeyA Northern Stage ProductionEven though the weather conditions are prohibitive, we haven’t yet had to cancel a single performance of Peter Pan. Usually, if you are unable to attend a performance, we would try to accommodate you at another performance. Unfortunately, due to being so close to the end of the show's run, this will not be possible. We regret we cannot refund any tickets if you are unable to attend a performance.
The perfect antidote to panto for children aged 7 and over.Imagine an island peopled by pirates, and indians, and fairies and mermaids...With Peter Pan as your guide, let your imagination run wild this Christmas and explore the magical shores of a place that every boy and every girl knows is magically real in the two minutes before they go to sleep. Dive into the shimmering lagoons of Neverland. Fight alongside the Lost Boys. Clap your hands if you believe in fairies. And shake your fist at the crew of the Jolly Roger and the blackheart Captain Hook. But here comes the tick-tock-ticking of the crocodile...This is Peter Pan as you've never seen it before. Our Peter Pan will rediscover the charm of the original story that has enchanted children for nearly 100 years. A redesigned auditorium will get you as close to the action as possible as you join the Darling Children in a brilliantly inventive world of imagination and enjoy the timeless story of the boy who wouldn't grow up.
"the stage's transformation into a ship is a particular treat" The Journal"The whole story is seen through the eyes of a child with the baddies being naughty, like children, rather than evil and scary." British Theatre Guide"the magnificent, glittering clockwork crocodile steals the show" whatsonstage.com
