He can fly! Thanks to Birmingham’s Bear Grylls Adventure, Peter Pan was given the opportunity to soar high in the sky without the use of pixie dust.
Cast members from Birmingham Hippodrome’s spectacular pantomime, Peter Pan took to the iFly wind tunnel which simulates the experience of freefalling at 12,000 feet before plunging out the rear of a landed helicopter down an exhilarating zipline.
Union J band member, Jaymi Hensley, who plays Peter Pan in the production, was joined by Cassie Compton (Wendy), Kellie Gnauck (Tinkerbell) and Walsall’s own Imogen Brooke (Tiger Lily).
Peter Pan runs at Birmingham Hippodrome until Sun 27 Jan 2019 with tickets from £16. For tickets visit birminghamhippodrome.com or call 0844 338 5000 (4.5p per minute plus your phone company’s access charge).
