I saw it with Iain Glen a few weeks ago and did not think it was funny at all. I did not even chuckle once.

I had previously b*ght a ticket to see this next year and now not sure what to do with it as I definitely do not want to sit through the show again. :(

Ask the theatre if they accept returns and/or if they'd be willing to give you theatre credit for it? If not, I'll have it :p (I'm kidding, you're not really selling it for me!)

I've already been to the box office at the Old Vic and they will not do a refund, credit or exchange for a different show. :undecided:

Gift it (if any special occasions coming up)? Or swap it with someone on here for something else?

Possibly, they have completely removed the Rewards section from their website, there is a thread here.

Went to Peter Pan : The Never Ending Story arena show tonight and I must say we thoroughly enjoyed it.

It was Peter Pan, it was predictable, the use of pop songs throughout was at times cheesey, but it made a fantastic alternative to a panto. There was enough tricks and surprises to keep the kids thoroughly entertained, the vocals were good for the most part and some of the acrobatics and dance was quite amazing.

We'd all happily go and see it again!

Peter Pan at Wembley was excellent family fun. We particularly loved the acrobatics and singing. I would highly recommend it.
