NEVERLAND is based on the new modern-day sequel to the J.M. Barrie's 1911 novel, Peter and Wendy.  The adult Peter Pan (Peter Banning) who has forgotten his childhood due to his high-powered lifestyle, gets a surprise visit from Captain Hook and is escorted back to Neverland by his fairy, Tinkerbell.  Peter returns to Neverland to reawaken his inner childhood joy as he is reunited with the Lost Boys, Mermaids, crocodile, Fairies and Captain Hook.  After a struggle to remember, Tinkerbell and the Lost Boys finally break through and teach Peter to think happy thoughts to lift his spirit...so high that he might even FLY! Finally, he has the inner strength to finish his battle with Captain Hook once and for all!  Peter returns back to his childhood bedroom in London where he is reunited with his beloved mother Wendy, wife Moira and his two children who are marveled by his transformation and excited to begin their next chapter...together.  "To live will be an awfully big adventure!"
