There is never a dull moment in this rollercoaster of a musical by Stephen Sondheim and Leonard Bernstein, and the children in Year 8 certainly rose to the challenge. The tragic love story set
amongst gang warfare in 1950s New York has a central theme that the
children realised is still pertinent today. Performed on Tuesday to the whole school and guests from the local community, and on Thursday and Friday evening to friends and family, the production

has proved a huge hit both with the performers and everyone who has been lucky enough to see it.
It is hard to single out individuals in this stunning production. Edward Vyvyan as Tony and Lucia Syder as Maria were outstanding leads alongside Ben Rossiter (Riff), Freddie Richards (Bernardo) and Abigail Rigg (Anita). But the entire cast played their hearts out with all the roles demanding acting, singing and dancing skills.
