Last term concluded with an all-star performance showcase given by the talented students of Longbenton High School.  Sixty students from across years 7-13 came together to deliver Lionel Bart’s classic interpretation of Dickins’ *Oliver Twist*.  After three months of hard work rehearsing to be performance ready, our students delivered another stand-out musical theatre performance in our local professional venue, The Playhouse, Whitley Bay.  The gifted cast was led by year 9 student Owen Turnbull in the title role of *Oliver*, alongside supporting principals Georgia Carpenter (*Nancy,* year 13), Joe Murray (*Fagin*, year 10), Jackson Jones (*The Artful Dodger,* year 7), Harry Van Ransbeke (*Mr Sowerberry*, year 10), Esme Burrell (*Mrs Sowerberry,* year 10), Chloe Coll (*Bet*, year 10), Ryan Gibson (*Mr Bumble,* year 9) and Bethan Keiller (*Widow Corney*, year 10).
