Ewell Castle School performed their production of Oliver! to a packed house at the Epsom Playhouse on February 28 and 29.

The school has a close association with Oliver! as Oliver Reed, who played Bill Sykes in the Oscar-winning picture, was a pupil at the school.

A school spokesman said: “We’re delighted that the production includes pupils from our prep school right through to our sixth form and they are all thoroughly enjoying the opportunity to perform at the Epsom Playhouse with a professional set, costumes, make up and orchestra.

“I feel very proud of them all.”
