Peter Pan on at B'Ham Rep

[nutcracker]

Me, my mum and the kids saw this today and it was absolutly fantastic, all of my kids loved it as did me and my mum.

We saw the Snowman there least year and as that was also so fab I didn't think anything could live up to it, but Peter Pan was brilliant, all of the actors were so good and most of them were only young.

Oh and for anyone interested, next years xmas performance is going to be The Lion, the witch and the wardrobe and tickets go on sale on 19th Jan 08.

hi...do you think it would be ok for a nearly 4 year old ?

We saw this last week. The pirates and the Lost Boys were great; I especially loved Captain Hook and Mr Smee. I did, however, think some of the songs were a bit too sugary and (dare I say it) I didn't much like the guy playing Peter.

I've probably been spoiled by this version of it though - which I think is gorgeous.

Polly, it depends how long her attention span is I guess. A few of the younger ones in the audience when we saw it were getting a bit restless. But my two would have sat through it happily at that age I think.

Oh and the crocodile is wonderful!

thanks janeite, she's quite good at sitting and watching (gawping?)...i might see if there are any tickets left

Ds is just 5 and he sat really well and was very good. There were some very young children there when we went and they did make quite alot of noise but I think 4 would be fine.

At the start when Peter came on, I was a bit dissapointed as I also had expected to see the one in your link LOL, thats just what I had in my head. However by the end I thought Peter was fab.

My mum was dissapointed that Tinkerbel was only a light.

thanks for that, my mum said she would treat her (i think mum fancies it really and is glad to have an excuse!)
