Peter Pan Flies into Greenwich Theatre for a Magical Pantomime Adventure
Award-winning pantomime returns this festive season with Captain Hook, Tinkerbell, and a cast of family favourites, running from November 2025 to January 2026.
The Cutty Sark won’t be the only thing anchoring south of the Thames this winter! Greenwich Theatre is bringing Peter Pan: A Pantomime Adventure to London, and it’s set to be a festive treat for audiences of all ages. Running from Friday 28th November 2025 to Sunday 11th January 2026, this dazzling pantomime promises belly laughs, soaring antics, and magical moments on Neverland’s stage.
Awarded Best Script and Best Pantomime at the UK Pantomime Awards 2025, this year’s production is written and performed by the legendary Anthony Spargo. Fresh off his nomination for Best Villain, Spargo will once again don the iconic tricorn as Captain Hook, leading a talented cast in his twelfth Greenwich Theatre pantomime.
Samuel Bailey returns as Peter Pan, joined by Nikita Johal as Wendy. Over on the Jolly Roger, Louise Cielecki brings Smee to life, while Tom Murphy stars as Starkey. Adding sparkle to the adventure, Olivia Williamson plays Tinkerbell, and a gifted ensemble of Louis Edwards, Alex Marshall, Giada Rocca, and Georgia Brenchley round out the magic of Neverland.
The creative team behind the scenes is just as impressive. James Haddrell directs, with musical direction from ‘Uncle’ Steve Marwick, Emily Bestow on design, Henry Slater on lighting, Aidan Good on sound, and Hannah Schlenker on video design, ensuring the production is as visually captivating as it is fun.
Director James Haddrell comments:
“Pantomime has always been central to theatres, helping support year-round programming. But it’s not just about the business side – audiences love it too. This production brings together every generation, offering a celebration full of joy and laughter, while remaining one of London’s most affordable pantomimes.”
Whether you’re introducing little ones to the magic of theatre for the first time, or you’re a long-time pantomime fan, Peter Pan: A Pantomime Adventure promises festive fun, high-flying stunts, and unforgettable family moments.
