Many, if not most, of the people who played Peter Pan on Broadway were
women. is that woke?
The one I remember was Mary Martin who played Peter Pan on Broadway, TV,
and (I think) a movie.

Peter Pan woke? I don't know man. In the original book there's a
discussion about what happens to Lost Boys who get too old. I believe
the phrase used is that Peter "thins them out", without really
specifying what that means. In other words, Peter is a Nazi, but one
who's system is based on age rather than ethnicity. He has absolute
authority over a perfectly unified society and uses the threat from
out groups (pirates and Indians) to maintain control. Those who don't
fit within his society are "thinned out". You can interpret "thinning
out" multiple ways, but the boys don't come back, so it's definitely a
final solution.
