Hi, everyone! Below is a list of characters for Peter Pan and includes approximate lines counts for the character:

Adult Wendy: (40 lines) This is Wendy when she is all grown up. This role should be played by an adult. She is a good mother. She corrects Jane but more in a gentle manner rather than being harsh. She is passionate about her faith and is still a great storyteller.
