PETER PAN
Adapted from the novel by J. M. Barrie, Peter Pan is a story about a boy who is frightened of growing up and becoming sensible and dull. Instead he wishes to remain a child, free from all responsibility and care, free to have adventures whenever he pleases. He entices a girl called Wendy to escape from her bedroom one night and fly with him to Neverland, a place constructed from the dreams of children, inhabited by fairies, mermaids, pirates and a bunch of lost boys who yearn to be mothered. Together they have wild adventures until finally Wendy decides it is time to go back home and continue her journey to adulthood.
It is a story about growing old or staying young, about becoming dull and boring or remaining free and alive and adventurous. It is about deciding to conform to what others expect of us, or deciding to be an outsider. It is about what it is like to live in the moment, without a care for the future or for the past.
It is a story about adults who forget to be dreamers and creators of fantasy. It is about young men who have to choose to grow up to be like their fathers or to remain like Peter Pan. It is about young women who fall in love with young men like Peter Pan and have to deal with the consequences.
It is about what it is like not to have a mother. Without mothers keeping a watchful eye, boys can grow up like Peter Pan - wild and promiscuous. It is a story about Immortality. When we discover the secret gift of eternal life, why wouldn’t we wish to remain young?
Whatever the themes, Peter Pan is certainly a perfect story to adapt for the theatre, because theatre is nothing but make-believe. Five actors will attempt, with two tables, three lighting stands, pieces of cloth and a broomstick, to make you believe that they are flying to Neverland and back. Actors are like children. They imagine they are other people, and make houses out of bed sheets. They will sprinkle fairy dust on you all once the lights in the theatre go dark and the play is about to begin, and hope to transport you to another world. Bon voyage!
