Who decided playing was just for children? Play defines the joy of childhood and we let responsibility define "what it means to be an adult." With this "one or the other" mindset, our lives will lack the balance we need to be healthy, no matter our age.Peter Pan tells us the story of Wendy, the girl who wants to grow up too fast, and Peter, the boy who wants to never grow up. Throughout the play, these two extreme attitudes exemplify the need for balance of play and responsibility. We see Wendy attempt to be responsible for everyone and everything, doing so in the manner of her tightly buttoned up role models, Mr. & Mrs. Darling. In spite of the fun and freedom from his play and games, Peter is alone and floating in the world without anyone to support him.
However, finding a balance of the two, run and responsibility, is what creates both joy and a fulfilling life. So come, sit with us for a while, watch these students embody the characters in this timeless tale and let them remind you how to play. We hope you leave with a smile on your face and hope in your heart; hope for a future with a little more laughter, a little more empathy, and a lot more play.
