Well I can tell you right now..me and my boyfriend are working on our own invisioning of peter pan....with our own childish moments thrown in and what not...and even if it strays from the original story in some ways...I can't see EVER not giving the history in the program and encouraging people to read the book etc....I just don't get that. They wouldn't have a show without all of that. I liked how in the 2003 movie when the parents arrived in the nursery after the Darlings took off...you see an open book on the table with Barrie's picture in it haha
