Trivia
"Do you need a hand?" from the BBC adaptation was a genuine heckle from an audience member (the other heckles were scripted). However, its cheekiness and Henry Shield's ad-libbed indignation worked so well that they kept it in the final cut.

"Oh Come On!". What fun this was!

I'm not one for slapstick humor. Although this has it, it is acted so very well.

Nancy Zamit as TinkerBell (she plays more than 3 characters throughout the entire play) was hysterical. I had to go back a few times to watch her and some of her dance ditties.

All of the characters are adults...playing children in some parts. They carried it off really well. Several of the actors played more than 1 character and were enjoyable to watch them play a different character but still have remnants (on purpose) of the other characters they play. Sounds simple enough, but it's not. Many Hollyweirdohs high and mighty have been paid much more and would never be able to do it.

Just go in to this not knowing too much, other than the Peter Pan story itself.

Stick with it and you'll be in for a pleasant and funny watch. Some parts just to put a smile on your face as it's just clean fun.

Great humor, no cussing, just general good fun for the entire family.

So refreshing in these days and times where fighting, full frontal nonsense, and social justice pontificating have become the norm in everything made now.

It'd be so refreshing to have more of this type of viewing.

Kudos to the writers and actors. Good job. I watched this on Youtube Red free movies in case you're looking for it.
