Peter Pan

After seeing the Peter Pan teaser for 45 minutes there were a few aspects that I thought were well presented and thought through whereas others were quite confusing. Firstly to comment on the set what I noticed straight away was the the zip line coming from the back of where the audience are sitting to the front of the stage, also on stage there was a huge brown/orange looking rock, however for me it was too shiny but maybe this was done intentionally for the kids to grab their attention, I noticed there was a black structure with stairs, it looked like a mini stage and under it there was empty space, so at first I thought it might be a boat, but then when I saw the mushroom on top with the humidifier I got confused as to what it actually was. With the characters I noticed that the Pirates were all singing and projecting their voices which was great and also their clothing suited their characters they wore reds, whites and blacks and also had swords with them. Peter Pan was handsome looking, he wore quite a lot of greens to blend in with nature, I loved the idea of having tinker bell not talk and every time she said something there would be a jingling noise, however I noticed as she was running or doing any kind of action her wings would go skew, but I don't think she could of done anything about it, but just something I noticed, also with tinker bell,  I noticed she had point ears on which made it look more realistic.The kids who lived with peter pan were very cute, they played their parts great and were very childish, also they had shredded clothing of browns and dark greens which helped them also blend into their surroundings. Wendy's brothers had on pajamas and both their characters were well played, Wendy wore a pink dress, and I thought her role was great, her projection was clear however sometimes she was mumbling as she was speaking too fast. As the play progressed the structure I thought was a boat became a hiding spot for the children when the pirates arrived, it was covered in leaves and was great for hiding. What caught me by surprise was when peter pan flew in, I thought it would be dangerous but he made it happen and he did so very well, he played he's character with passion. Also another thing that was quite humorous was when I saw the crocodile, moving on stage but with a skateboard I thought this was clever idea since crocodiles move very swiftly.
