Peter Pan

Act 1, you did yourselves PROUD to come from your usual venue to a proper theatre, The Theatre Royal Margate. What a transfer!!!Your production of J M Barrie’s Peter Pan was directed by Beckie Clark to a great height for you, and that wasn’t just the flying, executed brilliantly by Beckie Clark herself.Being a youth production there is always a vast amount of talent on stage and this certainly showed in Alfie Murray as Peter, a tall young man with a good stage presence and with good singing and acting ability. This production had all the right elements, and all these were in place for a good evenings entertainment. Musically very sound under baton of Edward Greenhalgh and dance by Emily Cook. There are 2 teams of children, Port and Starboard I saw Port, and I am presuming Starboard are of the same high standard as Port.

Ben Clark as Captain Hook commanded the stage, his transformation from Hook to Darling was smooth and he was aptly teamed in the cast with Emily Cook as Mrs Darling and Story Teller Melissa Maxted.Costumes were excellent and so were your props, a good looking programme with a nice section on NODA,thank you. Yes there were a few things that have could been tightened, but this review is not meant to knock these, I have had a word in the right area, and remember this is only my opinion.I congratulate Act1 on their 10 year anniversary and if you carry on like this you will be reaching greater heights in the amateur theatre, I have seen you go from strength to strength, so keep going Act 1, and I look forward to seeing you very soon again, you set out to entertain and you always certainly entertain me on every visit.Well done and keep it up.
