Live?

[edit]

How really live is this "Live!"? Assume a ten second delay to edit/censor disasters. And a full three hour delay for the West coast... Do they have stand-ins ready for all the parts, like normal theater productions? Haven't they already recorded the whole production, so that they can splice in bits as necessary? Will the West coast really see exactly what the East coast does, regardless of any problems that may occur? -71.174.175.150 (talk) 23:29, 4 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The DVD info can be added, when you find a source, but Wikipedia is not a TV guide. — Wyliepedia 06:08, 6 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
For something touted as "live!", recorded repeats (in any medium) have special (ironic) relevance -- and significant issues with how identical the content is. The source of the DVD info is the content of the broadcast itself, and can be readily verified. I have never seen any WP article that considered DVD info irrelevant...-71.174.175.150 (talk) 14:43, 6 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
What I'm saying is: the DVD info can be added, preferably sourced outside of viewing one on TV. But listing all the rebroadcast dates isn't necessary, hence the link. — Wyliepedia 16:09, 7 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Peter Pan A Girl?

[edit]

I'm surprised the article doesn't address this at all. I know my grandson wants to know why Peter Pan is a girl. There can't be any rational explanation, but, rather, someone pushing an agenda that isn't part of the story.Godofredo29 (talk) 02:19, 15 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

One reason this article on a particular TV production didn't address this issue could be that it is traditional that a girl (or woman) is cast as Peter Pan, right from the original staging of the play in 1904 onwards: for a fuller explanation, see the main Peter Pan or the musical adaptation articles. Mary Martin and Cathy Rigby famously starred for decades as Peter Pan. Some pantomime productions in the UK still continue with the tradition. Modern stage productions since the 1980s in the UK have cast a boy as Peter Pan and this was considered at the time a dramatic departure from the original. No hidden agenda here!--Stelmaris (talk) 19:52, 15 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
