Peter Pan – Smee – Rare Productions
In 2020 Maddi Grace performed as Smee in an amateur production of Peter Pan at the beautiful Waterside theatre in Aylesbury. Smee is the comedic sidekick of good old Captain Hook! He spends most of his time running around chasing Captain Hook and his murderous plans. This role was testing for Maddi as she had to portray a male character and this was her first time experiencing this kind of role. However, she had help from cast members and a brilliant director to coach her through the process of becoming Smee.
The set for Peter Pan was incredible and definitely Maddi Grace’s favourite. The pirate ship was the best part. A funny moment occurred in the third show where Captain Hooks sword was left onstage and Maddi had to try and sneak on stage to get it (some of the audience members definitely caught her!) The Waterside Theatre in Aylesbury is the biggest theatre Maddi had performed in to this date. It was wonderful experience and would definitely like to perform there again.
