Script Peter Pan

60 Peter Pan
Wendy smiles, happier now. She nods and dries her eyes. Mrs Darling kisses her gently on the
forehead
We will be downstairs. There are a lot of extra hungry mouths to feed. Don’t be too long.
Mrs Darling leaves the nursery
Peter Pan flies into the nursery. He has been crying and has a tear-stained face
He looks around as Wendy stands alone, smiling; she starts
Wendy Peter!
Peter (embarrassed) Er … hallo, Wendy. I just came to say. That is …
Wendy Yes, Peter?
Peter I should like … to give you back your thimble.
Wendy holds out her hand, expecting to receive the thimble she gave Peter when they first met
Wendy Very well.
Music 40: Don’t Say Goodbye
Slowly Peter kisses her on the cheek. Wendy stands with her mouth open not knowing quite
what to say. She is thrilled. Peter slowly backs away towards the window. He drops his eyes to
the ground and turns to go
Peter …
Peter turns back
Wendy If you like, Mother says I can come and spring clean for you once a year.
Peter (his face brightening) Oh, yes. Wendy! Yes!
Wendy Then I shall. I promise.
Peter heads for the window, crowing
Peter (turning, smiling) See you next year, Wendy.
Wendy (stifling a sob) Yes. Goodbye, Peter.
Peter (holding out his hand suddenly) No! (he moves towards Wendy; singing)
Don’t say goodbye, it’s not the end
I’m never far away
So close your eyes and dream
And I will seem to be
Here by your side and I will mend
The hurt you feel today
Don’t say goodbye, just try
To understand I’m me.
Don’t cry too much when I am gone
Or talk about my name
There comes a time that we all know
