SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
J.M. Barrie's Neverland is based on the play The Man Who Was
Peter Pan, which focuses on how Pan's author J.M. Barrie was
inspired to write his story after bonding with four fatherless
children who lived next door to him in 1800's London.
"The tragedy of childhood is that it ends all too quickly,"
James Matthew Barrie says in The Man Who Was Peter Pan. The
four young Davies brothers become an important element in
his life. "Barrie feels a connection to George, Peter,
Jack, and Michael that he doesn't have with other people -
he revels in their rambunctiousness, encourages their creative
impulses, and, unknowingly, lives vicariously through them.
He becomes a kind of surrogate father to them, and develops
a warm friendship with their mother, Sylvia."
