The laboratory had as main objective to provide prisoners with the tools of socialization for a new rediscovery of the self and the relationship with others, through the knowledge and practice of theatrical languages, writing, movement and musicality following a specific training path.

The book, sponsored by the Municipality of Brindisi, is edited and illustrated by the writer Alessia Coppola and is accompanied by a DVD containing audiobook, video art documentary on Peter Pan Syndrome and photos, all translated also in English.

In the audiobook, the voices of Marcello Biscosi and Norman Douglas Harvey read the fairy tale readapted by the prisoners with the original music of the composer Nicola Rigato and the audio setting by Simone Pizzardo and also contains the voices of the prisoners who read parts of the text of the original fairy tale.

The video art entitled PETER PAN SYNDROME directed by the Brindisi choreographer Vito Alfarano and always made with the inmates of the Brindisi District House, gives space to an artistic vision of the Peter Pan Syndrome.
