It was always a struggle for me as a kid watching pantomime to accept the convention of Peter being played by a woman, but perhaps easier to accept the dames (such as the ugly sisters in Cinderella) being played by men.

But a fairy (Tinkerbell) played by a human was okay?

Can’t remember lubracasi, except a dancing light spot on the wall and a disembodied voice!

Mick Jagger has been referred to as a 'Peter Pan' because of his eternally youthful demeanor and actions. Even Keith Richards said that. When I saw the Rolling Stones for the first time in 1997 he certainly exhibited the 'body language' during the show to prove that. When I saw them again in 2015 the years had finally caught up with the now Sir Michael Phillip Jagger. He still is an electric frontman but he didn't jump around or strut his butt so much until late in the show. Yes, the Peter Pan of Rock'n'roll has aged. He's not as agile as he used to be, still - the Rolling Stones still put on great performances and I highly recommend going if you can.
