38 <strong>Peter</strong> <strong>Pan</strong><br />
<strong>Peter</strong> It is good, <strong>Peter</strong> <strong>Pan</strong> has spoken.<br />
Tiger Lily places her hands together and bows towards <strong>Peter</strong> several times as she walks<br />
backwards across the stage and exits<br />
<strong>Peter</strong> makes his way towards the tree trunk, the entrance to the underground home<br />
The Lights fade on the clearing and come up in the underground home<br />
Wendy Children, I hear your father’s step. He likes you to meet him at the door.<br />
The Lost Boys, John and Michael bounce up and greet <strong>Peter</strong> as he enters the underground home<br />
Boys Father! Father’s home! Hooray!<br />
<strong>Peter</strong> raises his hand and the shouting stops. He is tired<br />
<strong>Peter</strong> I’ve told you! Don’t call me that! Go to bed!<br />

by herself at the extreme end of the underground home<br />
<strong>Peter</strong> (after a pause) Wendy … Wendy … You’re upset … I don’t think I understand why … but<br />
I’m sorry … Wendy?<br />
Wendy (turning to him, almost desperately) Oh <strong>Peter</strong>, are you sure you wouldn’t like to be a man?<br />
Music 25 begins<br />
<strong>Peter</strong> (speaking; gently) No, Wendy … you don’t understand, do you? I’ve told you …
