Steve Walls Pantomime Peter Pan Sunderland Empire 2009/10

Peter Pan marked Steve's third successive Pantomime for First Family Entertainment.

After the success of Cinderella in Manchester in 2007, and Aladdin in 2008 at Sunderland, Steve was delighted to be asked back to the Sunderland Empire in 2009.

Once again as principal comic, he played "Smee" - Captain Hook's inept right hand man. John Challis - "Boycie" from Only Fools and Horses was the villainous Captain.

Emmerdale's James Baxter played the magical Peter Pan.

After working together in 2007 in Manchester, fellow local North Easterner Steve Luck was Nora, the Ship's cook.

The show was direceted by Jamie Wilson - a successful producer in his own right;

	"But once again – for the second year running – it was Wallsend's Steve Walls that really shone as Smee. Steve is the ultimate entertainer, and is the perfect principal comic in a panto"

	Tegan Chapman; News Guardian

	"I particularly liked Smee and the Dame’s ridiculous ballet routine. Steve Walls was a big hit, striking up rapport with the audience, as the engaging Smee, who develops an unlikely love interest in the Dame (panto veteran Steve Luck playing both the Darlings’ nanny and the ship’s cook)"

	Barbara Hodgson - The Journal

	"Walls is a terrific panto comic (loved his Tiger Woods joke: "Sorry Tiger can't come to the phone. He's playing a round")

	Peter Lathan; The British Theatre Guide

	"A true highlight of the evening was the early interludes with Smee, played by Steve Walls, and Nurse Nora, played by Steve Luck. The jokes and local jibes were simply fantastic – you really were left hoping for a slight delay in the scene changes"

	Chris McBriarty, Newcastle Evening Chronicle

	"The highlights, however, are Steve Walls as dim-witted Smee and Steve Luck as the hilarious Nurse Nora. Both have the audience eating out of the palms of their hands and when they aren’t making us laugh, they are making each other giggle"

	Alison Carr; The Stage Newspaper

	"The show, however, belongs to the dim-witted Smee (Steve Walls) and the object of his affections Nurse Nora (Steve Luck). Walls is energetic and likeable, immediately engaging with the children and leading the audience- participation hi-jinks that ensue"

	WHATSONSTAGE.COM

	“The ebullient Steve Walls brings the cowardly Smee to life. The stock comedy song, The 12 Days of Christmas, once again brought down the house as Walls pursued Five Toilet Rolls that had been hurled into the audience and finished off the proceedings by squirting the stalls with a supersoaker, Superb slapstick”

	Viv Hardwick; The Northern Echo
