Reflection on Peter Pan

This Friday I was lucky to watch the premier of the original performance of Peter Pan. It lasted longer than two hours I'm sure took a tremendous amount of work from the whole crew. To be honest, I don't have a lot to compare it with anything else because I've never seen any shows made in high school. However, from my perspective the show was a great success! I can infinitely praise the work of actors because all of them were awesome. I was surprised how a girl can play a boy so naturally you wouldn't ever think somebody else could have been on her place. Erin played Peter Pan as a real boy who passionately refuses to grow up. I notice a lot that most of the actors in movies tend to have the same facial expressions in all their roles. Well, it wasn't the case with Charlotte who was so different in both of her roles: the mother of Wendy and the Captain Hook. I guess that the most difficult part was to put all the pieces like lightning, sound, technical things and scenes together in the play but the directors and managers did an awesome job in only three months! However, some lightning problems could be seen by the audience. It was their first performance and it could be understandable. As far as the parts of changing the scenes, they were a bit odd. The crew was moving too fast and they seemed like they didn't know where they were supposed to go. Maybe if they were moving slower 
I know I probably should be more critical of the play and say things that can be improved but I truly believe in what I said. It was a fantastic experience and I enjoyed every moment of it.
