The role of Wendy as a mother character for Pan, her brothers, and the Lost Boys is indicative of this. In the original play, and in the many other stage adaptations in the early to mid 20th century, Pan was played by a woman. In the Disney version many of the darker themes are glossed over and Pan is clearly male. Perhaps this is part of why we begin to see an explosion of new adaptations of the Peter Pan character beginning in the s and reaching a fever pitch in the s.

So putting the two together was always going to be a winning formula. A giant of a man, he fills the stage not only with his sheer size but with his personality, creating a fantastic, villainous Hook who earns plenty of boos from the audience. The kids in particular were consummate professionals, and so adorable it brought a tear to the eye, while the three divas dazzled both visually and vocally, singing a fantastic routine of groovy soul numbers.

Sarah Paulson Cast In Very Strange Adaptation Of Lost Girls
Billed as a serial killer drama, what makes the adaptation so bizarre is that it does not appear to have anything to do with Alan Moore's Lost Girls at all, perhaps because, on closer inspection, it is actually an adaptation of Robert Kolker's nonfiction book Lost Girls. While Moore's Lost Girls is a pornography comic with artist Melinda Gebbie depicting the sexual adventures of Alice from Alice in Wonderland , Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz , and Wendy from Peter Pan , Kolker's Lost Girls is the true life story of a Long Island mom who, while searching for her own lost daughter, discovers the bodies of four different girls in the woods. If you consider these differences carefully, you will see that, other than the title, these two books are not really very similar at all. Of course, given the opportunity to adopt any Lost Girls as a movie, we're not sure why documentary filmmaker Liz Garbus would choose to go with Kolker's Lost Girls rather than Moore and Gebbie's Lost Girls. It is not very often that one comes across a great porn comic starring public domain characters from well-known literature, even rarer, perhaps, than accidentally finding four bodies in the woods.
J M Barrie's classic novel expresses troubling psychological ideas through the lightest of means. But, ironically, the story of a boy who can fly is frequently grounded by Edwardian whimsy and heavy-handed staging. For 21st century tastes, the middle-class children can seem cloying rather than adventurous, while the effort of recreating a Bloomsbury town house, a pirate ship and the land of the Lost Boys can weigh a production down.
