Peter Pan Pantomime Script Excerpt
TOOTLES, NIBS, CURLY, SLIGHTLY and the ENSEMBLE as LOST BOYS are in a clearing in the woods. TINKER BELL rushes onstage and whispers in TOOTLES’ ear.
TOOTLES: What? We’re under attack!
TINKER BELL points towards the sky and whispers to TOOTLES.
TOOTLES: There’s a bird? And it’s coming to eat us?
TINKER BELL nods. She whispers into TOOTLES’ ear again.
TOOTLES: A Wendy-bird? Are they dangerous?
TINKER BELL nods again. She points at SLIGHTLY and mimes using a bow and arrow to shoot it down.
TOOTLES: (To SLIGHTLY) She wants you to shoot it down.
SLIGHTLY: Shouldn’t we ask Peter first?
TINKER BELL shakes her head. She is handed a bow and arrow from the wings and thrusts it into SLIGHTLY’S hands.
NIBS: Shoot it down!
The LOST BOYS start to chant “Shoot it, shoot it, shoot it!” PETER PAN, JOHN and MICHAEL enter behind them.
PETER: Hey everyone! I’m home.
The LOST BOYS turn to look at PETER PAN. They cheer.
PETER: What are you doing with that bow and arrow?
TOOTLES: We’re going to shoot the Wendy-bird!
MICHAEL: What’s a Wendy-bird?
NIBS: It's a great big bird that wants to eat us.
CURLY: Look, here it comes.
WENDY enters.
TOOTLES: Hang on, that’s not a Wendy-bird, it’s a Ladybird!
JOHN: That’s not a Ladybird…
JOHN and MICHAEL: It’s our sister!
PETER: Everyone, this is Wendy. She’s going to be your new mother.
The LOST BOYS all react excitedly.
WENDY: I’m still not sure about that Peter, what if I’m no good?
MICHAEL: Don’t worry Wendy; you can’t be worse than ours.
WENDY: Don’t be so rude, Michael.
JOHN: That’s exactly what mother would say!
Everyone laughs.
PETER: See, you’re getting the hang of it already.

Peter Pan Copyright Notice
In 1929, J. M. Barrie gifted the rights to Peter Pan to Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital. In recognition of Barrie’s unprecedented generosity, and the exceptional work of the Hospital itself, a special clause in the UK’s Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 granted the hospital the right to a royalty from Peter Pan in perpetuity. For nearly 100 years, the story of Peter Pan has enchanted children and adults alike, and continues to benefit the seriously ill children who are admitted to GOSH for life-saving treatment every day.
Please note, if you’re applying to perform our adaptation of Peter Pan and your performance will take place in the United Kingdom, in addition to a licence to perform this script, you will need to seek permission and pay an additional licensing fee to perform this title from Concord Theatricals who represent the theatrical rights to Peter Pan on behalf of Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital Charity.
