207. ‘Peter Pan & Wendy’ Star: Noah Matthews Matofsky

Friends, we’re SO excited to have the star of the newest Disney reimagining of Peter Pan on the show today! Noah Matthews Matofsky joins us all the way from London to chat about his leading role as Slightly, one of the Lost Boys, in ‘Peter Pan & Wendy’ now streaming on Disney+. Before being scouted for the film by American casting agent Debra Zane, Noah had only ever been in school plays! We chat about what it’s like to be recognized, learning stunts, and he even gives us a performance of a favorite Disney song! He’s not only a trailblazer for actors with Down syndrome, but an ambassador for Down Syndrome UK, member of The Phoenix Theater Group, and hopes to go on to drama college. This is an episode you’re not going to want to miss!
