Meanwhile, back in London, Wendy’s daughter Jane dreams of her own adventures — and with a little fairy dust, she’s soon flying headfirst into the magic and mayhem of Neverland.

Together with the ever-cheerful Isla and Archie McHaddock, the gang set off across Neverland — meeting mermaids, battling pirates, and uncovering a mysterious castaway who may not be what they seem. Peter Pan and the Pirates is a laugh-out-loud, feel-good pantomime adventure for the whole family — packed with sparkle, slapstick, and a few unexpected twists along the way!
