Productions (572)
Comedy/Drama
|
65 - 75 minutes
3 W, 2 M, 2 Any (7-30 actors possible: 3-30 W, 2-30 M)
Set: One unit set that has a bedroom space and a vast space beyond. Somewhere on the set should be space to write a long list of "happy thoughts" -- this has been successfully achieved by painting available surfaces with chalkboard paint.

In this lyrical, atmospheric interpretation of Peter Pan, Jeremy Bloom strips the familiar story down to its emotional essence. Peter lures Wendy away from her nursery to the magical world of Neverland, where she joins his adventures with Tinker Bell, Tiger Lily, and the menacing Captain Hook. A low-tech, inventive adaptation that pays homage to the darker themes of J. M. Barrie's original, Peter/Wendy will mesmerize audiences of all ages.

Published Reviews

"Marvelously subtle... A new and startling interpretation."

Charles Kruger, TheatreStorm.com

"Engagingly explores the questions of innocence, friendship, family and loss that have made the story a classic for more than a century."

Robert Sokol, The San Fransisco Examiner

"[The play's] commitment to the purest elements of theatre is refreshing, and commendable."

Loren Noveck, NYTheatre.com
