"The best way to enjoy 'Peter Pan Goes Wrong,' in fact, may be to take it as some kind of comedy of errors...the game resilience of the actors—as they suffer through relentless variations on disaster slapstick—gets a little tiring, at least for me, when offered in a two-hour dose."

“...'Peter Pan Goes Wrong' will be a great night out for a family audience. The politically incorrect show is a total blast and one of the very few Broadway attractions where kids are encouraged to clap, boo and talk back to the annoying actors."

“ 'Peter Pan Goes Wrong' goes long and belabors its physical and vocal antics. But in general, too much of a good thing is a great thing here."

" 'Peter Pan Goes Wrong' exceedingly well. I mean to say, it goes right by going very wrong and avoiding ever going right."
