Peter Pan Christmas Play

Departing from its customary practice of presenting a pantomine at Christmas, Unity Theatre will this year stage a musical fantasy production of Peter Pan.

Produced by Mrs Rae Skyrme, the play has a cast of about 30, headed by Sharon Troy as Peter, Eugenie van Dijk as Wendy, and Derek Bird as Captain Hook.

The play will show at the Opera House from Tuesday 14th December to Saturday 18th.
