Continuing my Pan kick, Peter Pan Live was a live-broadcast production of the musical in 2014. Headlined by Christopher Walken and Allison Williams, it was largely panned (get it?) by critics, but I enjoyed it well enough. Putting on such a production live, for that length of time (it ran over three hours), is impressive. One big dig was Christopher Walken, who (according to one critic) appeared unaware that he was on national television, often having a faint voice or (seeming to) forget lines- unless that was all part of the act (or just Walken being Walken). Overall, it didn't blow me away as memorable, but it wasn't atrocious, either.
