About

An exhilarating new take on a beloved classic myth of love, loss, redemption – and pirates.

Fly away to Neverland as you’ve never experienced it before – Ella Hickson’s darkly witty retelling of JM Barrie’s Peter Pan is directed by Jonathan Munby, featuring Lolita ChakrabartiDaniel KriklerCharlotte MillsHannah Saxby and RSC Associate Artist Toby Stephens.

Follow Wendy on an awfully big adventure as she journeys far from the safety of the Darling’s nursery on her quest to find the key to her parents’ forgotten happiness, discovering how the power of just one happy thought can set flight to newfound joy.

With Peter Pan, fairy Tink and Tiger Lily, Wendy takes on Captain Hook in this ‘spectacular’ (Guardian) staging exploring what it really means to grow up.

With breathtaking sets from designer Colin Richmond, flying, sword fighting and more than a sprinkling of fairy dust, it’s an unforgettable journey for all the family.
