BWW Reviews: Carly Linehan Soars in ENCORE's PETER PAN at the Warner Grand in San Pedro
by Shari Barrett - Jan 18, 2014
Carly Linehan takes charge of the stage from the moment she flies onstage as Peter Pan, enthralling the audience with her high-spirited portrayal of the boy who refuses to grow up. She made it look terribly easy to fly, sing, and throw fairy dust without a care in the world. With her boyish charm and mannerisms, Linehan truly will have you believing you are watching a young boy in the throes of childhood joy and freedom throughout the ENCORE show at the Warner Brand in San Pedro.
