Smee

Journey to Neverland this May as The Ballet Team presents Smee, an all-original orchestral ballet based on the characters of J.M. Barrie’s Peter Pan. Smee, the loveable swashbuckling pirate, dreams of becoming Captain of the Jolly Roger someday. There’s just one problem, the Jolly Roger already has a Captain, and that’s the wickedly wicked Captain Hook. When Smee stumbles upon a map of the lost treasure of the Spanish Conquistadors, he might have just found his path to becoming Captain. He will, however, need to navigate crocodile-infested waters, avoid the sirens at Mermaid Lagoon, and confront that mischievous pair Peter Pan and Tinker Bell, to secure the gold and his legacy as the greatest Captain in all of Neverland. From the ballet company that brought the Illawarra original ballets including The Sorcerer’s Apprentice (2024), Swan Lake… But with Cows (2023) and Peter Pan (2018), comes a new and exciting orchestral ballet featuring local dancers, choreography by Meryl Dalton and music by Ryley Gillen. Book your tickets today, take the second star to the right and straight on ’til morning to this truly enchanting ballet, suitable for the whole family.
