~ 1904 ~
Peter Pan is a beloved, classic tale of a young boy who refuses to grow up and his adventures in the magical Neverland, inhabited by lost boys, pirates, and fairies. The story was inspired by J.M. Barrie's friendship with the Llewelyn Davies family, with the character of Peter Pan named after one of the boys. The tale was first told through a play in 1904 and later adapted into a novel in 1911. Since its creation, it has been adapted into films, TV shows, and pantomimes. The story explores themes of childhood, innocence, and the fear of growing up.
