The legend of Peter Pan has been delighting children for over 100 years and this faithful new version is a festive adventure, perfect for the whole family by Bilston Operatic Company at Wolverhampton Grand Theatre from Tuesday 8 - Saturday 12 November.

Featuring music and lyrics by the award-winning duo George Stiles and Anthony Drewe, we join Peter and the Darling family as they are whisked away to the famous land full of colourful characters including the Lost Boys, Tiger Lily and, of course, the dastardly Captain Hook. With a spectacular mix of swashbuckling adventure, jaw dropping flying, and an infectious score, Peter Pan is guaranteed to bring forth one's inner child, and send you reeling "Just Beyond the Stars."

Dan Smith is Captain Hook, Zachary Hollinshead is Smee, Issy Checketts is Tiger Lily, Nikki Jewell is Liza and Amy Frost is the Storyteller.

The cast is completed by a talented local ensemble.

PETER PAN - A MUSICAL AVENTURE is directed and choreographed by Laura Canadine.

Laura Canadine said; "We are having so much fun revisiting the story of Peter Pan in Stiles and Drewe's wonderful musical. As winter approaches it's the perfect show to lead us into the festive season. It's packed full of action and adventure as well as the most beautiful score and we can't wait to take the Wolverhampton audiences on an awfully big adventure!"
