The enduring tale of Oliver Twist came to life again here at New Hall and had the audience up on its feet by the end of the run. The Drama, Music and Dance Departments would like to thank all those who came to the shows and all families who supported the students through an intense but incredibly rewarding experience.

Below are just a few of the messages and emails sent by both those known to the cast and those from outside the School community who joined us in the Eaton Theatre.

‘Thank you all so much, we had such a super evening. The talent on the stage was outstanding. The singing, acting and choreography was superb and the band were fantastic. The work involved behind the scenes and in preparation was clearly evident from the wonderful performance.’

‘I wanted to pass on that we all thoroughly enjoyed the performance this week, and it was very evident how much time, effort and hard work had gone into it from the cast and crew.’

‘I just loved the show on Friday, they were magnificent. I know how much time and hard work goes into these things, so just wanted to say a huge well done to you and your fabulous team!’

‘Wow – I am blown away by the talent. I loved every single minute!’

‘The show was brilliant last night, well done to all. The boys loved it, many of them were singing the songs during breakfast this morning!’

‘What an AMAZING performance – such wonderful actors, singers, set design and music.’
