Trivia:
The production was never broadcast annually. It was first telecast live on March 7, 1955 as "Producers' Showcase: Peter Pan (#1.7)" (1955) and re-staged live (by popular demand) on Jan. 3 1956 as "Producers' Showcase: Peter Pan (#2.5)" (1956). It was not seen again until this version was videotaped in color and telecast in 1960. Rather than re-broadcast it annually, as CBS began doing with The Wizard of Oz (1939), NBC repeated the videotaped version in 1963, 1966, and 1973. A long hiatus followed, during which this 1960 production was presumed lost. There was a new production starring Mia Farrow with a new score, Peter Pan (1976) (TV). Finally, in 1988, the original 1960 videotape of the Mary Martin version was re-discovered intact, restored and remastered, and telecast in March of 1989 - the production's first TV showing in 16 years. moreGoofs:
Crew or equipment visible: The wires to aid Michael in flying are clearly visible in the scene in the bedroom when Peter is teaching the children to fly. moreQuotes:
Wendy: [about Neverland] Oh Peter it sounds wonderful... What's it like?Peter Pan: It's an island, Wendy.
Wendy: A large one?
Peter Pan: No, quite small, and nicely crammed, so there's hardly any room between one adventure and the next.
Wendy: Who do you live with?
Peter Pan: The Lost Boys.
Wendy: Who are they?
Peter Pan: They're the children that fall out of their carriages when the nurse looks the other way. They're not claimed in 7 days, they're sent far away to Neverland... I'm Captain.

Awesome! Clearly, the commenter above didn't know one thing from another. The characters were masterfully played. Peter Pan was delightfully mischievous and willful while Captain Hook was devious and intriguing. The children sometimes got a little on the annoying side, but they are little to be dealt with, though Wendy could be accused of being whiny. Tinker Bell was classically played. Though Tiger Lily couldn't be played by today's standards, her song is fun as well are the animals which chase around Neverland. This makes a great play for children with active imaginations to watch and which parents can sit through without hitting themselves over the head with an empty video box. Fun, light hearted music and a hint of a moral.
