This simplfied and shortened two-act version is perfect for schools and other youth groups with limited time to rehearse. The music has been transpositioned for young voices, keeping all the favorite parts without the demands of a large production. Peter Pan was first produced on Broadway with Mary Martin and Cyril Richard and more recently a major hit starring Cathy Rigby, this is one of the world's most celebrated musicals. Here is all the charm of J.M. Barrie's Peter Pan, Tinker Bell, the children Wendy, Michael and John, pirates and Indians, embellished with show-stopping songs, "Never Never Land", "I Won't Grow Up" and "I'm Flying".
