Synopsis
The fictitious Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society, fresh from such hits as
The Lion and The Wardrobe, Cat, and
James and the Peach, or
James, Where's your Peach? are putting on a production of
Peter Pan, a seasonal vignette. During the production, a plethora of disasters befall the cast including doors sticking, props on the walls falling down, and floors collapsing. Cast members are seen misplacing props, forgetting lines, missing cues, breaking character, and being manhandled off stage with at least one cast member being knocked unconscious or injured; but the show must go on! The climax sees the pirate ship break free from the set and sail off down the aisle into the foyer and back into the auditorium, carrying the hospitality staff with it. Nevertheless, the plot goes as such ...
The narrator introduces the Darling family, Nana the dog, and Eliza the housekeeper. Mrs and Mr Darling leave, and the children go to sleep. Peter Pan flies in through the window and finds his shadow, which Mrs Darling and Wendy trapped in a chest. The children wake up, and Peter teaches them to fly and takes them to Neverland. When they get there, they find that Captain Hook has kidnapped Tiger Lily. Captain Hook comes to the hideout and follows their tracks down to the shore. Wendy and Peter hide as the pirates come to Marooner's Rock to leave Tiger Lily there. Peter impersonates Hook and convinces the pirates to let Tiger Lily go. Hook arrives, and Peter Pan fights him.
Back at the hideout, Wendy, Michael, John and Tinker Bell have an imaginary meal. ("The World Of Make Believe") Peter returns and tells them about his latest adventures. Wendy realises that it is time for her and her brothers to fly home. Hook adds poison to Peter's medicine, but Tinker Bell drinks it and becomes unconscious. She is saved when the audience chant that they believe in fairies. Hook and the pirates kidnap the children, but Peter comes to their rescue, and a battle ensues. Eventually, Hook and the pirates are eaten by the crocodile, and the children return home to their parents.
