## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

Liverpool’s 1947 theatre scene wasn’t ready for a starstruck teen’s big break into Peter Pan. She joins a struggling troupe where Peter’s shadow resembles the grown-ups trading favors and secrets instead of fairies. A coming-of-age story where no one remembers to grow up.

**Mood tags**: bittersweet, cozy, tender
