Reviews

The show was amazing!!!! Everyone was fantastic especially the children. Our who team had an amazing time from 4 years old to 90 years old. The music was great, the dancing was great, interaction was wonderful and the subtleties were quite amusing, no, hysterical. Thoroughly enjoyed the whole show and it was so entertaining we were shocked at the time that had gone by. Thank you to all, on stage, back stage, everyone involved for the work you do to make us smile. A special thank you to Karen who makes this evening for us possible - thank you! We will be back next year!

What a wonderful show for 2 grandmas with their grandkids aged 5 and 10. Everyone had a fabulous time!! Funny, engaging, the best characters and great music by the band. Such fun with excellent singing, dancing and costumes. Bravo to the many young actors supporting the pros. Can't wait for next year's panto!

We love the theatre and attending their plays is always a treat. We took our grandchildren (13 and 6) and we all loved the show. The kids voicing their opinions were among the loudest shrieks of joy helping Tinkerbell and Booing Captain Hook. The continuous flow jokes was loved by the adult and the kids supported them in their laughter.

This performance was absolutely fun from beginning to end! The actors were outstanding, the dancing was so complex and engaging and the scripting was clever. Best performance for kids and adults ever!
Gwen S, Waterloo
The musical panto, Peter Pan, at St Jacob's Theatre, was excellent. It was lively and fun, the songs were great, the acting was superb, and it was VERY funny! We all agreed that it was the best one we've seen in all the years we've been enjoying a Christmas Panto. From my 5-yr-old granddaughter, to her 11-year-old and 13-year-old siblings, to her mom and both her grandparents, this show had us all fully engaged. I HIGHLY recommend it!
Jane M, Waterloo
Absolutely excellent!

Myself and my grandsons (9 & 7) and granddaughter (3) absolutely loved it. What a fantastic show put on by an amazing cast. Special shout out to Wendy Darling, Peter Pan, and especially Nellie Copperbottom, Smee, & Mr. Darling/Captain Hook. You were all amazing! Highly recommend for all ages!!
