The Barn Theatre has released production images of their reimagined one-man production of JM Barrie’s Peter Pan, starring Waylon Jacobs.

Running until 3 January 2021, this new take on the classic tale has been adapted by Alan Pollock and co-conceived by Kirk Jameson and Nick Barstow. It follows a father in a hotel room, three thousand miles away from home. Desperate not to miss bedtime, he recreates his daughter’s favourite story: an epic tale of adventure, pirates, fairies – a crocodile with gigantic teeth! – and a little boy who refuses to grow old….

The one-man production is also available for schools to purchase streaming links to watch a live performance direct from the Barn Theatre to their classrooms. The venue has also announced plans to make their production free to stream for hospitals and care homes over the festive period. 

Peter Pan is directed by Director-in-Residence Kirk Jameson, with music by Nick Barstow, design by Gregor Donnelly, lighting by Joe Price, projection by Benjamin Collins and sound by Harry Smith.

Tickets for the production at the Barn Theatre can be purchased here.
