Sir James Barrie’s timeless tale of the boy who never grew up is reborn as a spectacular musical by Stiles & Drewe and the late Willis Hall. 

The show was first broadcast in 2001 as the New Year’s Eve concert on BBC Radio 3, starring John Thaw, Sheila Hancock and Laura Michelle Kelly. A fuller semi-staged version, with the London Symphony Orchestra, was mounted at the Royal Festival Hall over Christmas 2002 starring Richard Wilson and James Gillan, with Suzannah York as the Storyteller and Lottie Meyer as Wendy.

Since then, Stiles & Drewe extensively revised the show for a stunning new production directed by the highly talented Rachel Kavanagh. Peter Pan – A Musical Adventure reunited Stiles & Drewe with the designer Peter McKintosh (who created the National Theatre’s designs for Honk!), bringing to life the magical world of Neverland with its spectacular scenes of flying, swashbuckling and sheer fantasy.
