Wendy and Peter Pan

Fly away to Neverland as you’ve never experienced it before, with Wendy & Peter Pan – Ella Hickson’s darkly witty retelling of JM Barrie’s Peter Pan directed by Jonathan Munby. 

Follow Wendy in her quest to find her own lost boy, as she learns what a great adventure life can be, and how the power of just one happy thought can set flight to newfound joy.

With Peter Pan, fairy Tink and Tiger Lily as her unlikely allies, she takes on the villainous Captain Hook, RSC Associate Artist Toby Stephens (Oslo, Hamlet), in this ‘spectacular’ (Guardian) staging. Playing for a limited run of 5 weeks from 21 October - 22 November.

Twelfth Night

The Royal Shakespeare Company welcomes in the festive season at the Barbican this winter with Shakespeare’s spellbinding masterpiece Twelfth Night, following a sold-out run in Stratford-upon-Avon, from 8 December.

With original music composed by singer songwriter Matt Maltese, don’t miss this bittersweet freewheeling miracle of farce, longing, love and life, playing for 6 weeks only until 17 January 2026.
