It has always been a tradition that Peter Pan is played by a girl. Mary Martin, Sandy Duncan, and Cathy Rigby. It has been said they have always been played by girls because girls are easier to lift of the ground. Plus, while in the harness, it might hurt a guys....family jewels. : ) If i might add, Peter is supposed to be a young boy. About the age of 12-14. A girl might sound more like a young boy would then an older guy playing Peter. They have to hire adults for professional reasons. So there u hav it!: )
