World's first Peter Pan drone light show to be staged in the West Midlands
The timeless magic of J M Barrie’s Peter Pan will soar to dazzling new heights as sky-theatre specialists, Lumina Drones, unveils the world’s first Peter Pan drone light show at Ragley Hall in Alcester, on April 11.
In partnership with Great Ormond Street Hospital, this groundbreaking production will bring the beloved story of Neverland to life using hundreds of LED drones, transforming the night sky into an illuminated stage.
Through breathtaking drone artistry, audiences will witness some of the most iconic moments from the legendary tale of ‘the boy who wouldn’t grow up’. From Peter, Wendy and Tinker Bell soaring across the London skyline, to the dramatic showdown between the notorious Captain Hook and Peter Pan, the show is meticulously choreographed, together with cinematic sound and lighting design to create an unforgettable sky-bound experience.
Before the main event, guests can enjoy a lively family-friendly atmosphere with fairground rides, face painting, and food stalls serving street eats and refreshments from local traders.
The production is presented in partnership with Great Ormond Street Hospital. In 1929, J M Barrie gifted all rights to Peter Pan to the children’s hospital, and it continues to receive royalties for public performances of the play. Lumina Drones is proud to donate £1+VAT from every ticket sold to support Great Ormond Street’s vital work with children and families.
“Peter Pan has captured imaginations for over a century. To bring it to life in the skies, using the magic of drone technology, is both a creative milestone and a deeply meaningful project. We’re proud to support Great Ormond Street Hospital as part of this journey,” said Shah Kibria, Founder & Executive Producer at Lumina Drones.
Based in Hertfordshire, the visionary team at Lumina Drones retells legendary tales through its creative arm, Lumina Sky Theatre. Pioneers of drone-theatre, they created the hit shows Space Safari (with Michaela Strachan) and Rudolph: The Red-Nosed Reindeer. Using cutting-edge technology, Lumina is redefining live entertainment by combining sustainability and innovation to create a revolutionary form of aerial storytelling.
Tickets are priced from £15.99 for children and £18.99 for adults, available at Eventbrite.
