From Cuddington Youth Drama

Peter Pan
CYD's production in February 2010 was “Peter Pan”, the timeless musical story about Peter, Wendy, Michael, John, Captain Hook and Tinkerbell. There were six sell-out performances at the Bernard Hall, Cuddington during half-term week. Elaine English's production took CYD's success to a whole new level, with spectacular sets created by Georgiana Dacombe, Annie Bradley and Chris Long, wonderful costumes created by Pauline Sullivan and terrific choreography by Sarah Chapman. Once again Gary Hawkins excelled with the musical direction and a live five-piece band provided the musical accompaniment to the cast's terrific singing.
Book, Music and Lyrics by Piers Chater-Robinson Adapted from the play by J.M. Barrie
An amateur production by arrangement with Samuel French Limited
