The Drive with Rob and Roz spoke to a few of the cast members of the reimagined version of 'Peter Pan'.
Think happy thoughts, gather some fairy dust and join a sensational cast for an action-packed adventure with Peter Pan, Tinkerbell, the Darling children and other exciting characters.
"I absolutely love the story of Peter Pan, because it has so many elements to it; firstly the magic of the flying is my favourite part of the show – most children and adults dream of flying," shares Director Janice Honeyman.
"Then there is the magic of the story. What I’m trying to do this year, to differentiate from the last two Peter Pan productions, is to highlight more issues that children, teenagers and young adults deal with, like bullying, being left out, feelings of rejection."
