Review: Peter Pan at Resorts World Sentosa
I fell in love with Peter Pan as a kid! The amazing green kid, who could fly, who had a fairy, had numerous adventures with Pirates, and an ability to “Never grow Up”. This evergreen boy always struck a chord in my heart! Coupled with Disney cartoons and movies, they immortalized the story in my young mind, and I was hooked! 🙂
Playing at Resorts World Sentosa till 20 Jan, 2015, “Peter Pan: The never ending story” is brought to life, with songs like “Forever Young”, and “You Raise me up”. This is not a classic musical or a comedy like Dim Sum Dollies, but it is more of a narrative dance with singing iwoven into the production.
With costumes wonderfully made, and high rise acrobatics to bring out the joys of flying, my kids found the show entertaining. My youngest girl, who recently played “A lost boy” in her school’s production was particularly enthralled by the “happenings” on stage. However, do bear in mind, that it is not a Hit Broadway musical, and the emphasis here is more on narrative dance.
Synopsis:
Peter Pan is a mischievous boy who can fly and refuses to grow up. One night, he visits Wendy, John, and Michael Darling in their London nursery and takes them on a magical flight to Neverland where the Lost Boys, Indians, mermaids and pirates await them in adventures beyond their wildest imaginations. But the villainous Captain Hook hatches an evil scheme that crescendos to a dramatic swordfight with Peter.
Watch the classic J.M Barrie tale come alive in this theatrical spectacular brimming with highflying action, thrilling swordplay, magical fairy dust, and well-known pop songs from the likes of Robbie Williams, Josh Groban and Westlife given a refreshing makeover by musical director Matt Dunkley (the name behind the soundtracks of Moulin Rouge, Pirates of the Caribbean and Inception).
