Peter Pan: 2007

Commissioned by Roundhouse, London, Founding Joint Artistic Director Tim Supple returned to India and on to the major centres of China, Argentina, Brazil and Cuba.

Once again we experienced an extraordinary array of approaches to performance: circus, Kung Fu, Chinese opera, contemporary physical theatre, Capoeira and Stanislavski as practiced by Cuba’s superb actors.

The aim was a reinvention of Barrie’s classic as an international, contemporary circus work in Roundhouse’ s unique space: sweeping away the Victorian cobwebs.

In the end we met hundreds of performers in unforgettable workshops in circus tents, on beaches and in ancient schools, and the production remains in development.
