A traditional pantomime written especially for New Zealand audiences. This script, which was first written for a UK theatre Christmas season in 1996, has now been updated and available for the first time to New Zealand theatres.

Also Adey will constantly update this pantomime script as events occur around New Zealand.

The script can be presented as a fully rehearsed show with elaborate sets and costume or simply as a front cloth sketch show with minimal dressing.
Adey will be adding new pantomimes as he updates them from his back catalogue.
Peter Pan tells the traditional story of the boy who never grew up and his adventures with Wendy, Michael and John Darling as they fly off to Never Land to fight the villainous Captain Hook.
