Danny Kaye was cast as Captain Hook in an unrealized project by George Cukor. Peter Pan would have been played by Audrey Hepburn.
The original Broadway production of "Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up" by Sir James M. Barrie opened at the Empire Theater on November 6, 1905, ran for two hundred twenty-three performances, closed on May 20, 1906, and starred nineteenth century Broadway actress Maude Adams, who never made a movie, and who should not be confused with actress-model Maud Adams.
The famous INFAMY JOKE Written by Dennis Norden and used in Carry On Cleo is used here too.
