✨ That’s a wrap on Peter Pan Jr! ✨

What a busy, magical weekend it has been 💫

Junior shows are something really special, young people come in not quite knowing what to expect, often not knowing each other… and leave with new friendships, new skills, and a whole lot of confidence.

It’s been incredible watching this cast grow, support one another, and come together to bring Neverland to life on stage 💙

This is what makes Kirwee Players such a special community.

A huge thank you to everyone who came along to laugh, cheer, and support our cast, it means the world ✨

We can’t wait to do it all over again next year 👀

🌟 Crew appreciation 🌟

Behind every moment on stage...
There's a team working tirelessly behind the scenes.

From quick changes in the wings, to hair, makeup, and costumes before the show...
From the quiet work in the dark, to the friendly faces greeting you at the door...

Our crew are the ones making sure everything runs smoothly, often unseen, but absolutely essential ❤️

This show simply wouldn't happen without you.

👀 Today is your last chance to (not) see the crew in action!

Final show at 11am and there are still a couple of tickets left so don't miss out!
