Peter Pan

The Boy Who Would Not Grow Up

Olivier Theatre, NT

By J. M. Barrie

Adapted by John Caird and Trevor Nunn

This was the final National Theatre revival of the original RSC version of J. M. Barrie’s source material.  It opened at the Olivier auditorium of the [National Theatre](http://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk) on 17th December 1998 and played throughout the Christmas season.

The [RSC](http://www.rsc.org.uk) version is published by [DPS](http://www.dramatists.com/cgi-bin/db/single.asp?key=889) in New York.

The NT version was published by [Methuen](http://www.amazon.co.uk/Peter-Pan-Fantasy-Methuen-Modern/dp/0413735508) in England.

The Adapters and Directors were greatly indebted to Andrew Birkin, the world authority on Peter Pan, for his invaluable help with the text.
