Peter Pan plays with thresholds and opposites of:
- aloneness / socialisation
- youth / adulthood
- children / parents
- innocence / experience
- naïveté / maturity
- not knowing / knowing
- wildness / civilisation
- rebelling / conforming
- fantasy / reality
- boys' adventure stories / girls' domestic games & fairy stories
- boy / girl
- sun / moon
- native / foreign
- able / disabled
- land / sea / sky
- time: past / present / future
- life / death
- memory
which makes meaning elusive, intriguing, fantastical...
