Based on J.M. Barrie’s timeless classic about the boy who never grew up, Peter Pan is the second Spring panto from Regal Entertainments, promising a family friendly swashbuckling show featuring fabulous flying scenes!
With a sprinkling of fairy dust, audiences are invited to join Peter, Wendy, John, Michael, Tinkerbell and friends as they leave St Helens behind, flying past the second star to the right and straight to Neverland, to enjoy daring adventures battling the evil Captain Hook and his hapless henchman. Along the way, theatregoers will also meet Pirates, Fairies, Lost Boys, Indians, and of course one tick-tocking crocodile.
The title role of Peter Pan will be played by Harrison Vaughan from television show The Greatest Dancer. He will be joined by a whole host of St Helens favourites returning to the stage for another spectacular panto.
Harrison trained at Liverpool’s Jelli Studios, which was founded by Brookside’s Jennifer Ellison. The accomplished dancer finished runner-up on BBC 1’s The Greatest Dancer. His television credits include Taking The Next Step; The Next Step; Harrison Vaughan The Winners’ Story; Peaky Blinders; Why I Dance? By Harrison Vaughan; and short film Saturday. Theatre credits include Matilda the musical at London’s West End, and Peter Pan in Liverpool.

Harrison Vaughan said: “Peter Pan was my first panto as a child, I played Nibs the Lost Boy. It’s crazy to think I’m now playing Peter all these years later. It’s been so long since I’ve been on stage due to Covid, I’m so excited to be back performing in a theatre so close to my heart.”
Harrison will be joined on stage by St Helens’ favourites Lauren McCrory as Wendy; Mia Molly as Tiger Lily; Reece Sibbald as Smee; David Phipps Davis as Mrs Smee; Scott Gallagher as Captain Hook; and newcomer to Regal Entertainments, Hayley Russell as Tink.

Theatre Manager Chantelle Nolan commented: “Peter Pan is always a fabulous family favourite – you have the good characters, the mischievous characters, and the magical characters. It’s a real show of pure escapism as we set off on a thrilling adventure with the Darling family and their new friends, and the exciting flying scenes are not to be missed. We’re gearing up for a St Helens extravaganza this Easter.”
