PETER PAN MUSICAL

Spectators had to pinch themselves as they watched Peter Pan fly above the stage without wires for the musical Peter Pan – The Never Ending Story. The “World Arena Tour” was a high-flying, hi-tech fantasy adventure spectacle with a combined 50 shows in Brussels, Amsterdam, Rotterdam, and London that featured a mobile, outdoor wind tunnel specially designed for indoor use and touring. AERODIUM designed and manufactured a custom wind tunnel, provided stunt doubles, custom flight equipment, and training for the show.

Latest technologies not only ensure that the open wind tunnel can be operated inside premises, but also a possibility to build it into the stage, less noise, better visibility and only 5 hours of the mounting time.
