The first person to play Peter Pan was Nina Boucicault in London in 1904. The next year Cissie Loftus played the role in London and Maude Adams began a long run playing the part in New York. Pauline Chase took over the role for several years in London.

The first person to play Peter Pan in a movie was Betty Bronson in a 1924 silent movie.

After nearly 50 years of being produced as a straight stage play, the first person to play Peter in a musical adaptation was Jean Arthur. A few years later Mary Martin was the first person to play the role in the musical adaptation that's still playing in the US. She was also the first person to play Peter on TV.
