The talented pupils captivated the audience with a professionally executed show, telling the well-known story of a young boy who escaped from an orphanage, and navigated his way through an underworld of theft and violence, searching for a home, family and love.
 
The budding actors and actresses sang and acted alongside accompanying music from a professional orchestra, commandeering the stylish theatre at JW3 on Finchley Road.
 
Head of Drama at Portland Place School, David Chivers commented: “Our talented pupils displayed an immense amount of passion in rehearsals for our musical theatre show and this was evident in the final productions. They put on an outstanding display which they should be proud of."
