NATIONAL ACADEMY OF PERFORMING ARTS
DANCE CONCERT 2021
“Neverland” is a magical dance journey based on the work “Peter Pan” by J. M. Barrie. We invite you to come with us to a place where you never grow up! To a magical island reached by flight, discovered at “the second star to the right and straight on till morning!”. The home of enchanting fairies, savage pirates, mischievous mermaids and ticking crocodiles. Welcome to the dream-like fantasy with no boundaries, and adventures that are never far between.
