A
CHRISTMAS PETER PAN
WHY
IS THIS PLAY BEST FOR YOUR SCHOOL?
Written
especially for young people to perform.
While
you may find large cast plays from other publishers, most of those
were originally written for adults or
professional actors to
perform. They often contain difficult dialogue, unfamiliar or
complex language, and speeches too long for young children to
memorize. They may even contain jokes, innuendos and subject matter
that may not be appropriate for children.
Easy
to understand and memorize.
Dialogue
is simple, fresh, quick and humorous, keeping the action flowing
without stops and starts between scenes. This keeps young people and
young audiences engaged throughout the performance - no awkward
pauses, no dead-time, no wiggles!
Everyone
participates!
All
children are involved throughout the performance. This builds
confidence, promotes team spirit and eliminates rehearsal rowdiness.
The audience is often asked to join in the fun, and action often
spills into the aisles! All of our SCHOOL PLAYS give suggestions on
how to divide up large parts (such as Snow White or Cinderella) among
several performers so that no one child is the "star".
Familiar
stories with upbeat endings.
The
story line stays as close as possible to the familiar story the kids
already know. While some authors feel the need to
"improve" the story, our SCHOOL PLAYS stay as close to the
familiar narrative as possible, making it easier for children - and
your audience - to understand.
Feel
free to edit! Go ahead and tape it!
Most
publishers insist that no changes may be made to their scripts.
We know that your
goal is to engage every child in the most meaningful way and that
your needs are unique. Cut, eliminate, re-assign lines, or add
as much as you like! Also, there are no restrictions on video
tapes. Parents want a tape or DVD to remember their child's big
moment. Go ahead and tape away!

A
CHRISTMAS PETER PAN
A
NOTE FROM THE PLAYWRIGHT
In
the past few years we've seen a
tremendous increase of confidence in the teachers we hear from.
Most are finding it easier to let the process flow and worry less
about the final product. I firmly believe that the experience
will be best for all when you keep a few things in mind:
Free
yourself from worry about
whether or not it's "good". No one is paying big
ticket prices; no one expects a Broadway success. The key to
making this project meaningful is to put the emphasis on process;
realize that rehearsal and practice are as much a part of the
experience as the actual performance. Encourage fun and you
will free the children from embarrassment and stress. If the
kids can't learn the lines let them carry a script or use their own
words to convey the character's message. If they seem to wander
the stage, let them explore where they want to go - they might
surprise you with a wonderful idea. In every aspect of the
process give them the wings to create and think. Give them a
comfortable, supportive place to go and their confidence and
self-expression will soar!
Above
all else, make sure you are
having fun. If you've never directed a play before, don't
worry. It's all just pretend -- you can't do it wrong!
The quality of your experience is every bit as important as that of
the children. You need the joy of self-expression too, that
doesn't go away when we grow up. So give yourself a break.
And when all else fails, laugh!
Thank
you so much for choosing A
Christmas
Peter Pan. I hope you
and your young friends have as much fun performing this play as I did
writing it.

Captain Hook's boys were hiding out...
(SOUND

PIRATES
enter as their names are called carrying mops, except for SMEE who
carries the bucket. They can dip their mops in bucket, later
SMEE will use it for pudding pot.)
WHITEWING:
The first pirate's name was Tattoo Bill...
TATTOO BILL:
(Pushes up sleeve and flexes muscles, to audience.)
Ha-ha! See my terrible tattoos, you scallywags! Argg!
MORNINGSKY:
Then came Skylights...
SKYLIGHTS:
Ha-ha! See my terrible glass eye! (Lifts eye patch.) Argg!
MOONDUST:
Then Noodler whose hands were fixed on backwards.
NOODLER:
Ha-ha! See my terrible hands that are fixed on backwards!
Argg!
STARSHINE:
Then Smee who was a terrible, terrible cook!
SMEE:
Ha-ha! Try my terrible, terrible food! (He goes
to audience in front row or aisle seat and offers a spoonful of soup.)
Have a taste of my Pirate Plum Puddin'! (Puts wooden spoon
to audience member's mouth.) Terrible, isn't it? (audience
member agrees.) Argg!
(SKIP

(SOUND
CUE ENDS. All PIRATES except SMEE exit.)
WHITEWING:
But there was one pirate more terrible than all the others put together...
SMEE:
Psst! Coast is clear, Captain!
(CAPTAIN
HOOK sticks his head out, looking around cautiously, sniffing for enemies.)
CAPTAIN HOOK:
No Indians?
SMEE:
No.
CAPTAIN HOOK:
No children?
SMEE:
No!
CAPTAIN HOOK:
No cro... cro... crocodile?
SMEE:
No sir, Captain! Haul him in!
(CAPTAIN
HOOK pulls on rope, tugging in his bounty: PETER PAN wrapped in
ropes with gag in his mouth. PETER PAN struggles and makes
muted sounds while SMEE and CAPTAIN HOOK tie him to the Christmas tree.)
CAPTAIN HOOK:
Ha-ha, Peter Pan! What's the matter there, Peter? Looks
like you're a little tied up at the moment!
SMEE:
You just had to get an eyeful of old Santy, didn't ya?
CAPTAIN HOOK:
That's what I like about you Peter. You'll never grow up.
(PETER PAN
spits out his gag.)
PETER PAN:
What have you done with Santa, Hook?
CAPTAIN HOOK:
Let's just say we've got him on ice.
SMEE:
Let's just say he's a little under the weather.
CAPTAIN HOOK:
Let's just say he's got himself a little... cold!
(CAPTAIN
HOOK and SMEE laugh uproariously.)
PETER PAN:
Ice? Cold? You've frozen Santa?
CAPTAIN HOOK:
What else am I supposed to do with all this ice we got up here at
the North Pole, hmm?
PETER PAN:
But you can't do that! He's got toys to deliver! It's
almost Christmas morning!
CAPTAIN HOOK:
Christmas! Christmas! Blast your blitherin' blubberin'
Christmas! It's over, Peter! All over!
CAPTAIN HOOK
& SMEE: (Singing.)
On the worst
day of Christmas we poked 'em in the brig!
We've captured
Peter! We've frozen Santa!
We're gonna
blow it! We're gonna sink it!
We're gonna
crush it! We're gonna bash it!
Christmas beware!
No lousy trees!
No darned socks!
No toys for tots!
Stick it all in
your jolly old ear!
(SOUND
CUE ENDS.)
PETER PAN:
That's all well and good for me, Captain! But what do you
think the Crocodile will think of it?
CAPTAIN HOOK:
(Suddenly terrified.) Crocodile! Did you say
Cro... cro... cro... Crocodile?
SMEE:
Shut your claptrap! Nobody says that around the Captain.
Never say...
PETER PAN:
What? Crocodile??? Oh, that's right the Captain doesn't
like crocodiles does he? He's scared of the Crocodile, isn't he?
SMEE:
Ever since that scallywaggin' reptile ate his arm...
CAPTAIN HOOK:
Arg! (Grabs his hook, swoons with fear.) Ahhhrrrgggg!!!!
