Leander Haußmann liest 'Peter Pan' von James M. Barrie in der Übersetzung von Angelika Eisold-Viebig
Die Geschichte von Peter Pan - ursprünglich in einem Roman für Erwachsene beschrieben - gehört heute weltweit zu den Kinderbuch-Klassikern.
Als Theaterstück wurde es bereits 1904 in London uraufgeführt und zählt in England und Amerika vor allem zur Weihnachtszeit zu den am meisten gespielten Schauspielen für Kinder.
Leander Haußmann präsentierte dieses Stück im Juni 2000 als Abschlußregie seiner 5-jährigen Intendantenzeit am Bochumer Schauspielhaus.
Die Berliner Kultband ELEMENT OF CRIME konnte er für den Soundtrack verpflichten.
Für die Hörbuchproduktion wurden zwei Songs sowie zahlreiche Sounds von ELEMENT OF CRIME aus der Schauspielproduktion übernommen.
Die Parts von Peter Pan und Wendy werden von Annika Kuhl und Steffi Kühnert gesprochen, die auch in der Bochumer Inszenierung diese Rollen spielten.
Vorlage der Hörbuchproduktion ist das bei ARENA erschienene Kinderbuch.
Die Produktion wurde im März 2001 in die HR2-Hörbuch-Bestenliste gewählt.
This 1872 sequel to Lewis Carroll's beloved Alice's Adventures in Wonderland finds the inquisitive heroine in a fantastic land where everything is reversed. Looking-glass land, a topsy-turvy world lurking just behind the mirror over Alice's mantel, is a fantastic realm of live chessmen, madcap kings and queens, strange mythological creatures, talking flowers and puddings, and rude insects. Brooks and hedges divide the lush greenery of looking-glass land into a chessboard, where Alice becomes a pawn in a bizarre game of chess involving Humpty Dumpty, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, the Lion and the Unicorn, the White Knight, and other nursery-rhyme figures. Will Alice get her crown?

J.M. Barrie's timeless tale of the 'boy who would not grow up' Peter Pan is edited with an introduction by Jack Zipes in Penguin Classics. When Peter Pan and his fairy companion Tinker Bell fly in through the window of Wendy's nursery one night, it is the beginning of an adventure that whisks Wendy and her brothers Michael and John off to Neverland. There they will find mermaids, fairies, pirates led by the sinister Captain Hook, and the crocodile who bit off his leg - and still pursues him in hope of the rest! Peter Pan originally appeared as a baby living a magical life among birds and fairies in J.M. Barrie's sequence of stories, Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens. His adventures capture the spirit of childhood - and of rebellion against the role of adulthood in conventional society. This edition includes the novel and the stories, and reproduces the original illustrations by Francis Donkin Bedford and Arthur Rackham. In his introduction, Jack Zipes sifts through the psychological interpretations that have engaged critics, explores the cultural and literary contexts in which we can appreciate Barrie's enduring creation, and shows why Peter Pan is fundamentally a work that urges adults to reconnect with their own imagination. James Matthew Barrie (1860-1937) was born in Scotland, the son of a weaver. In 1885, he moved to London to pursue a literary career. Peter Pan, with its flying and theatrical devices, was a huge success and continues to be performed today; in 1911 Barrie rewrote the play as a novel. On his death in 1937 Barrie gifted copyright of the play Peter Pan to Great Ormond Street hospital. If you enjoyed Peter Pan you might like Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, also available in Penguin Classics.

A rescued beagle and his boy owner seek love and understanding for their troubled small town in this holiday companion to the Newbery Medal-winning Shiloh, from Phyllis Reynolds Naylor.Christmas is coming and Marty and his rescued pup Shiloh are sure glad about that-for their town is low on love and understanding and they hope that the joy of the holiday will bring with it the generosity of spirit that's so lacking. It's been a year since Marty Preston rescued Shiloh from Judd Travers and his cruel ways, and since then, Marty and Shiloh have been inseparable. Anywhere Marty goes, the beagle's at his side, and Marty couldn't be happier about that. Even Judd has been working to improve his reputation. But just as townsfolk grow more accepting of Judd, a fire in the woods destroys many homes, including Judd's, and Judd's newly formed reputation. Doubt, blame, and anger spread faster than the flames-flames that are fanned by the new minister, who seems fonder of fire and brimstone than love and mercy. And why are his daughters so skittish around him? And what's happened to Judd's dogs? With Christmas right around the corner, Marty has a lot of questions, and how they're answered might just take a Christmas miracle. Phyllis Reynolds Naylor's fourth book in the Newbery Award-winning Shiloh series-following Shiloh, Shiloh Season, and Saving Shiloh-is full of heart-thudding suspense, as well as comfort and joy.
