Take a trip into the world of the Lost Boys in Bath and you will be invited to take the ‘second star to the right and straight on til morning’.

You do have to believe, of course, and if you do, you will transported from the starry cityscape of London into the magical world of Neverland where boys and girls fly across the stage with ease.

Rollerskating Tinkerbell (Victoria Hay) introduces the action, and proves to have as much moodiness as a hormone-fuelled teenager, her hatred for Wendy (Joanna Forest) plain to see.

Cliff Parisi, known in a former life as Minty from EastEnders, is formidable as a gravelly voiced Captain Hook whose jokes were too awful to even raise a groan!

Jon Monie as Smee and long-time Theatre Royal dame Chris Harris, as Governess Gertie/a ship’s cook, are a delightful double-act as ever, although the choice of production didn’t lend itself to quite as many comic routines from the duo as in previous years.

Jessica Punch was an assured Peter Pan with enough gung-ho attitude to galvanise the Lost Boys into action, although my four-year-old was adamant that, contrary to pantomime tradition, he should have been played by a boy.

Tinks’ solo and Peter and Wendy’s duet, Eighties hit Waiting for a star to fall were performed to perfection.

The really humorous routines are always a treat with Let’s Get Ready for Crumble a joy to behold, and a credit to choreographer Lewis Butler.

Let’s not forget the pirates, particularly a hilariously camp Sharon the Shameless complete with his pink fan, who turned astonishing acrobatics at the end with a breath-taking gymnastic routine, any more detail of which I won’t give away.

Mention must also be made of the detailed sets, including Mr and Mrs Darling’s house, an ‘early IKEA’ nursery and the pirates’ secret hideout.

Watch out for the send-ups of popular TV shows such as X-Factor and Strictly, peppered with plenty of audience participation and the chance to be on the end of a Super Soaker if you are sitting in the right place, and you have a recipe for a thoroughly entertaining experience.

Of course, you must not take my word for granted as never is an awfully long time. And you will never never know if you never never go.
