Wendy & Peter Pan

Wendy & Peter Pan description

Adults get lost in this classic tale of love, loss, and redemption. Kids get lost in a grand adventure stacked with pirate action. This is the Royal Shakespeare Company's delightful Wendy and Peter Pan, in town for just five weeks at The Barbican. You'll experience Neverland as you've never seen it before, thanks to Ella Hickson's dark and fascinating vision of JM Barrie’s classic children's book, directed by Jonathan Munby. This is the story of Wendy, who leaves home to find the key to her parents' lost happiness. Accompanied by Peter Pan, fairy Tink, and Tiger Lily, she conquers the diabolical Captain Hook and has all sorts of adventures along the way. There's even a happy ending to make you smile.

RSC Associate Artist Toby Stephens (Oslo, Hamlet) brings Captain Hook to thrilling life. Colin Richmond's Set and Costume Design makes the show a visual feast, and magical Choreography by Lucy Hind adds to the spectacle. Shuhei Kamimura's Music, Christopher Shutt's Sound Design, Oliver Fenwick's Lighting Design, and Taiki Ueda's Video Design, plus Terry King's Fight Direction, bring more excitement. Annelie Powell CDG is the Casting Director in a production originally produced by Bunkamura Theatre in Tokyo and Leeds Playhouse, all set to light up the capital again.
