Trivia
The Broadway stage musical production of "Peter Pan" opened at the Winter Garden Theater in New York City on October 20, 1954, and ran for 152 performances.
Mary Martin won the 1955 Tony Award (New York City) for Best Actress in a Musical for playing the title role that she recreated in this televised production.
