STUDENTS at a girls school will be dressing up to sing and dance their way through the musical Oliver!

More than 60 pupils from The Grammar School for Girls Wilmington are taking part in the production of Lionel Bart's classic show.

Year 7 student Chloe George, 11, will be playing Oliver.

The show is being directed by English teacher Katie McAllister, with the music directed by head of music Frank Roddy.

Miss McAllister said: "This is our team's first production, but rehearsals have gone well and we are confident of an outstanding performance."

Performances will start at 7.30pm tomorrow, Friday and Saturday.

There will also be a matinee performance for senior citizens tomorrow at the school in Parsons Lane, Wilmington.
