Sail together, prevail together
Peg, a small dreamer, embarks on an adventure to climb the world's highest peak, Mount Everest. Born in a fishing boat, she cherishes salted cod, sings sea shanties, and envisions a world "Big, better, best!" The Manitoba Theatre for Young People's production of Peg and the Yeti, directed by Emma Welham, brings this story to life for children aged three to eight.
Laurel Fife stars as the determined heroine, showcasing her wide-eyed optimism and joyful perseverance. The production also features musical support from Katie German and Simon Miron, who portray Peg's supportive parents. With plenty of audience participation and imaginative set design, the show features a cast of one-of-a-kind characters, including a grumpy Yeti that transforms into a lovable creature.
The actors' energetic performances and in-unison dialogues bring the story to life, while the metaphor of family support resonates strongly throughout the production.
