About
Hook’s Neverland
A circus of the imagination
Welcome to Hook’s Neverland – a spectacular world-premiere adventure where exhilarating circus, breathtaking aerials, astonishing magic and outrageous comedy collide. This summer, the Concert Hall transforms into Neverland itself, but not quite as you remember it.
Peter Pan has grown up, but Neverland didn’t. Captain James Hook finally has the stage to himself – and the chance to tell his side of the story at last. Cunning and charismatic, Hook is determined to rewrite history. But can you believe anything he tells you?
With his right-hand man Smee, a maverick troublemaker Tinkerbell and a travelling carnival of extraordinary performers, Hook guides audiences on an unforgettable journey.
Along the way, discover Neverland’s extraordinary realms, from a punk-fuelled Fairyland and the rebellious Lost Boys’ Hideout to Mermaid Lagoon, Skull Rock and the Jolly Roger.
In a whirlwind of circus, illusions, humour and tomfoolery, the magic of Neverland comes alive on stage – all the while, Hook teeters on a knife-edge of danger, trying to evade the relentless crocodile.
From Craig Ilott and Stuart Couzens (GATSBY at The Green Light, L’Hôtel) and director Neil Dorward (Circus 1903, The Illusionists), Hook’s Neverland is a thrilling new live show featuring an outstanding international cast of acrobats, aerialists and illusionists. Embarking on a treacherous adventure of mischief and possibility, they’ll have you questioning the fairytale and the so-called villain you thought you knew.
Come aboard this dazzling celebration of imagination, family and the child within us all.
