Amazon com essential video : An entire generation of baby boomers grew up with this stagy but magical production which originated on Broadway but was broadcast several times on TV They may not know Mary Martin or Cyril Ritchard two staples of the commercial theater in their time for any other reason but they ll always be able to name them as Peter Pan and Captain Hook The story of the boy who wouldn t grow up includes a classic score with songs that can bring a tear of nostalgia to the eye of the middle aged like I Won t Grow Up I ve Gotta Crow and Neverland The flying the goofy comedy it s all there in this video version of the classic TV broadcast It s hard to know what sophisticated modern youngsters would make of it but their parents will gladly sit and watch with them Marshall Fine
