London
1903:
four
lads
three
women
and
J.M.
Barrie
in
the
year
he
writes
"Peter
Pan."
After
one
of
his
plays
flops
Barrie
meets
four
boys
and
their
widowed
mother
in
the
park.
During
the
next
months
the
child-like
Barrie
plays
with
the
boys
daily
and
their
imaginative
games
give
him
ideas
for
a
play.
Simultaneously
a
friendship
deepens
with
Sylvia
the
lads'
mother
to
the
chagrin
of
his
wife
Mary
with
whom
he
spends
little
time
(separate
bedrooms)
the
widow's
mother
and
high
society
which
gossips
about
his
attraction
to
the
widow
and
to
her
sons.
As
Sylvia's
health
worsens
Barrie's
ties
to
the
boys
strengthen
and
he
must
find
a
way
to
take
his
muse
to
Neverland.
