Peter Pan Pantomime Script Spotlight
An awfully big adventure awaits!
Our Peter Pan pantomime script gives a story audiences know by heart to a pirate crew who cannot get through their own introductions. Dame Smee starts the roll call in Act One and gets no further than her own name before the whole thing collapses, and Hook is undone far less by Peter than by the people working for him. Tinker Bell is played by two performers who look nothing alike, so the fairy can cross the stage at impossible speed. Oh, and be careful of the crocodile!
Synopsis
After visiting the Darling household to retrieve his shadow, Peter Pan whisks Wendy, John and Michael off on a flying adventure to the magical island of Neverland.
Captain Hook, who has never forgiven Peter for the loss of his hand, is doing everything in his power to find the Lost Boys' hideout and defeat them once and for all. Meanwhile Dame Smee, first mate aboard the Jolly Roger, is having second thoughts about life under Hook's command. And Tinker Bell, even after falling out with Peter, makes the ultimate sacrifice to save him, though only a firm belief in fairies, and plenty of audience participation, can bring her back.
Get ready to take flight, this script will have you Hooked!
Straight from the Script
Dame Smee introduces the pirate crew. It does not go smoothly:
Smee: 'May I introduce… Hook, Line, Sinker, Hugh and Smee…'
Hook: 'You introduced me twice.'
Smee: 'No I didn't. I introduced myself once!'
Casting Peter Pan: Who this script suits
At 14 principal roles and five supporting parts, Peter Pan sits among our scripts for large casts, with pirates, Lost Boys, mermaids and the Darling household all needing bodies on stage. The mermaid scene is written to take anything from a solo singer to a full comic ensemble, so you can pitch it at whatever your company does best. Flying to Neverland looks spectacular where the space allows it, and the script includes a clean, practical alternative where it does not, or where you would rather not have the conversation with your insurer. As a traditional pantomime script title, this is sure to go down a treat, and Neverland also travels well out of season, so it is one to consider if you are looking at summer pantomime scripts.
