Last Wednesday, ginanap ang press night para sa musical play na Peter Pan: The Musical Adventure sa Meralco Theater.  

After the show, tumanggap ng standing ovation ang buong cast from the press at ilang friends na unang nakapanood ng well-loved classic fairy tale.

Magaganda rin ang reviews na naglalabasan ngayon lalo na para sa lead na si Sam Concepcion.

Hindi nagkaroon ng pagkakataon ang PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) na makausap si Sam after ng play noong Wednesday, pero nagpaunlak ito ng phone interview kaninang umaga, September 30.

Two months din daw na nag-prepare at nag-rehearse si Sam for his role as Peter Pan.

"We worked on it for about two months. Pero, yung flying scenes, two weeks before the show [ni-rehearse].

"It was the time na lumipat na kami sa Meralco Theater. 

"We were trained pa by people from abroad. They came here to train us with the flying scenes. They flew in from Las Vegas."

Ten years na sa showbiz si Sam at sa theater daw siya nag-umpisa. Ang  The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe daw ang una niyang sinalihang play.

Ilang musical plays na rin ang nagawa ni Sam kung saan ay siya ang bida. His last was Noah.

When asked if he auditioned for the role of Peter Pan, "I think, they already had me in mind when they got the rights," sagot ni Sam.  

"So, when they told me about it. I said yes, right away," patuloy pa niya.

Para kay Sam, isa raw sa dream roles niya ang gumanap na Peter Pan.

"It's a lot of fun to do. Especially, delivering a timeless story to the audience, and doing it over and over again is fun.

"And as a kid, I guess, we're all fond of Peter Pan. We can all relate to his story."
