Frank Schwemmer’s new opera, with a libretto by Michael Frowin, takes J. M. Barrie’s adventure to Neverland and turns it into music theatre for young audiences: flying, pirates and the fear of growing up, told by six soloists, five pirates, a 50-strong children’s choir and full orchestra.

The production was commissioned by the Philharmonie Luxembourg and had its world premiere there in 2024.
