This is a rare single page advertising handbill (flyer) promoting the one-week, Provincial Tour engagement of the annual J. M. BARRIE classic "PETER PAN" at the Alexandra Theatre in Birmingham, England beginning March 16th, 1959. (The Original West End production opened December 27th, 1904 at London's Duke of York's Theatre and ran for 145 performances. This production opened December 18th, 1958  at the Scala Theatre in London  and played four weeks before going on the road.) ..... The musical starred SARAH CHURCHILL in the title role and JOHN JUSTIN as "Captain James Hook" and featured RUSSELL THORNDIKE, JOAN SETON, KEITH WILLIAMS, JOHN LEVITT and  JULIA LOCKWOOD as "Wendy"  ..... Side note: JULIA LOCKWOOD ( 1941 –  2019)  began her theatrical career at the age of 12, when she was cast in the lead role in "Alice in Wonderland" at the Q Theatre  in Southwest London.   She went on to star in numerous  West End shows into the 1970's. However, it is in the play "Peter Pan"  that she is perhaps most remembered.  She first played the role of "Wendy" opposite her mother, Margaret Lockwood in 1957, and then reprised the role the following year with Sarah Churchill  (daughter of Winston Churchill and Clementine, Lady Churchill)  in the title role.  In 1959, Julia finally achieved her dream of playing "Peter"; she would go on to play the lead role a further three times, in 1960, 1963 and 1966. She is one of only three actors to play both "Wendy" and "Peter", and she is the only actor to have played "Wendy" opposite her own mother in the lead role.  (Wikipedia)  .....
