Fly away to Neverland in Sherman Cymru’s Christmas show
Sherman Cymru’s well-loved Christmas show makes a welcome return to the city this year with an exciting adaptation of Peter Pan.
Get ready to be whisked away on an exciting adventure with sword fights, pirates, crocodiles and flying in Peter Pan - Sherman Cymru’s first Christmas production back in their new theatre, from 30 November 2012 – 5 January 2013, suitable for ages 7+.
Peter Pan will be the first large scale Christmas show in Sherman Cymru’s new home. The theatre closed its doors to the public over two years ago for its redevelopment and audiences have been desperate to see the recognisable Sherman Cymru Christmas show back on its stage.
Adapted by Cardiff based writer, Rob Evans (Kes, Caged, The Ballad of Pondlife McGurk and Kappa for Catherine Wheels Theatre Company), the magical re-imagining of J.M Barrie’s classic story will feature favourite characters Peter, Tink and the Lost Boys, but turns the story on its head when Wendy encounters the darkly charming and dangerous Captain Hook.
Set on Christmas Eve, it tells the tale of Wendy who, with no mum and no money, is trying desperately to make it the best Christmas possible for her dad and two brothers.
As the cold reality of her situation dawns, a mysterious rebel appears at Wendy’s window talking of danger, excitement and adventure in a world far far away.
Enchanted by Peter’s stories, and despite the objections of his less than friendly fairy Tink, Wendy joins him on a magical journey to Neverland where she meets fairies and finds a new family with the Lost Boys. However, when things don’t turn out as she planned and the shadow of Captain Hook looms large, Wendy finds herself entering the most difficult struggle of her life.
Peter Pan will be at Sherman Cymru from 30 November to 5 January 2013 and is suitable for anyone aged 7+. Times vary, please see website for full details. Tickets are £15- £25. Previews £12 - £20 and children and under 25s get half price tickets. For tickets and further information, please contact Sherman Cymru on 029 2064 6900 or visit www.shermancymru.co.uk
