George Llewelyn Davies, later killed in action in 1915, was one of the children who inspired J. M. Barrie to create the iconic character of Peter Pan. Remembering him, and a generation of Lost Boys, directors Timothy Sheader and Liam Steel’s produce a stunning production which is as spellbinding as it is poignant.
