Review: PETER PAN AND MARY at TAFE:Theatre Arts For Everyone
by Sandra Harberger - Jun 20, 2026

Peter Pan is famous for never growing up and bringing Wendy and her brothers to Neverland to stop the ruthless Captain Hook. In Peter Pan and Mary, we go back many years and meet Mary, Wendy’s mother. Hope Lowry, as Peter Pan, portrayed this well-loved character as confident and adventurous, and maybe a tad self-centered. Mary, played by Rory Fogle, was as adventurous and confident as Peter Pan. This self-proclaimed Pirate expert was perfect to bring back to Neverland to defeat the evil pirate, Captain Barbecue, played by Caryn Darrow. Darrow was evil, manipulative, and cunning in this role. Without giving too much away, Mark Tauzin’s portrayal of Jimmy was excellent as he showed the evolution of this character.
