Pupils at Our Lady of Victories School will be hoping that their play, Twist, leaves audiences asking for more.

The school's drama group has been rehearsing the adaptation of Oliver Twist, written by their acting coach Carl Murray.

For the past six months the cast of 19 have been perfecting their lines and polishing up on the songs, and Mr Murray says they are one of the best drama groups he has worked with at the school.

He explained: "Every year we put on a performance but it's a different set of pupils. This year they have been really talented and have worked very hard. They are performing it for the school and an evening performance too. I am really pleased with what they have all achieved and we are all looking forward to the show."
