Peter Pan- The Musical

Our school has a musical every year and this year it was Peter Pan. We started practising the musical almost immediately when we came to school this fall. I didn’t audition for any roles because I’ve never played any kind of part in anything, so I was one of the dancers. We had only 3 dances in the whole musical, a pirate dance, an indian dance and a mermaid dance.

Our dances were all pretty easy but we all still struggled with them at first. But comparing to all the lead roles and everybody else in a role we had it very easy for us.

The week before the premiere we were at Sigyn-Sali, which is a local theatre, and where we would have all of the shows. We got there in the morning and got out very late at night and that went on for about 5 days before the premier. Everyone was exhausted and stressed because at one point it wasn’t even sure if it was going to be ready for the opening night.

We had 5 shows or actually 6 if you count the very first one we did for free to all our friends and people who wanted to see it before the premiere. And that actually was the first time we did the whole thing at once and I think it went quite well.

Overall I really enjoyed being a part of this musical because it was a great experience and I got to know a lot more people than I could have imagined. All of the stress and tiredness was all worth it in the end.
