This wee we dive into the classic tale from J M Barrie focused mainly on the story structure of the also classic Walt Disney film Peter Pan!

Pan is now a story in the public domain and has been one prone to discussion because of the many overlapping themes and undertones which run within it but the original auther himself has an interesting back story which leans into just why Peter Pan is so open to interpretation.

So this week Charlotte brings us our childhood as we dive into the fantasy, pirates and racism inherent in the film adaption. We look at the mythos of pan and Graham attempt to not ruin the story which has brought so many joy and yet ends up doing so anyway!
