new Peter Pan musical

I'm a big fan of new versions of PP, but I have to say that the "Neverland" track for this production was really awful. Ugh.

And is Peter played by a woman again? When is someone going to trust that role to a boy? The play makes so much more sense that way.

How does Peter Pan not make sense when Peter's played by a woman? It's not like she's playing it feminine. She's still supposed to be a boy.

These two songs don't work for me at all! The score sound like "Wicked"-wannabe. And that's not a good thing.

Peter played by a male? I saw a production of PP at the Shaw Festival in Niagara on the Lake, Canada a few years ago that was a disaster. Peter was played my a mature make complete with chest hair and a visable 5 o'clock shadow. He only wore a covering jacket when he had to have the flying harness. All the "children" were played by adults with no attempt to make them look like children. In the final scene the lost boys were all dressed as business men on the way to their jobs. The set looked like London during the blitz. It was a complete travesty of Peter Pan. The mermaids were almost topless with only netting on their breasts.

sounds to much like wicked.
