The colorful croc in NBC's PETER PAN LIVE! on Thursday night drew more attention than we could have anticipated. 'The Croc' was trending nationally on Twitter for a significant portion of broadcast, but the real question was: who was under that suit? Tony nominee (and SOUND OF MUSIC LIVE! alumna) Laura Benanti jokingly claimed it was she, but the real man behind the broadcast's breakout star was Charlie Williams.
Growing up, my brother, sister, and I wore out our VHS recording of one of Mary Martin's TV productions of PETER PAN. Mixed in between viewings of APOLLO 13 and THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK, we learned every word to every song, and while I don't remember dancing along with the Lost Boys, there is no doubt that we could have, if asked. I've never seen the musical on stage, so, for me, PETER PAN simply belongs on TV; and producers Neil Meron and Craig Zadan spared no fiary dust in creating a magical PETER PAN that reinforced why this holiday tradition should never grow up and fly away. Despite a handful of hiccups that befall many live productions, simply put, PETER PAN LIVE! is a triumph for children young and old.
