Yarm School students set to wow audiences with Oliver!

Students at Yarm School are set to wow audiences with their production of Lionel Bart’s musical, Oliver! thanks to our sponsorship.

A 60-strong cast of talented youngsters, both performers and behind the scenes, will tell the story of the young orphan Oliver Twist as he dares to ask for more!

And more is exactly what you’ll get in this lively, heartfelt Yarm School production.

Follow Oliver as he escapes the harsh workhouse and sets out to London. Along the way, he meets the charming Artful Dodger, who introduces him to the colourful world of Fagin’s gang – a group of lovable young pickpockets led by the sly but strangely endearing Fagin.

As a firm, we have supported Yarm School for many years, including sponsoring productions in 2018, 2020, 2022 and in 2024 – and also participating in the Yarm Student Apprentice competition. The team is also regularly involved with the school’s careers guidance events and offers student mentoring and work placement opportunities.

Dr Huw Williams, Headmaster of Yarm School, expressed, “As the curtain rises once more, Yarm’s exceptionally gifted pupils are ready to present another much-loved show at the Princess Alexandra Auditorium. We extend our thanks, once again, to Active Chartered Financial Planners for their continued support.

“Their substantial contributions to the Teesside community resonate deeply with us, and we are thrilled to maintain such a constructive and mutually beneficial partnership with the team there.”

Karl Pemberton, MD at Active Chartered Financial Planners, added: “We are thrilled to be back in the Princess Alexandra Auditorium for another ambitious musical. Oliver! is an absolute classic and I’m certain the cast from Yarm will be as amazing as ever!

“The firm is committed to supporting the future of Teesside, and that includes the encouraging the region’s young people. We have a fantastic relationship with Huw and the team at Yarm, and we’re always excited when show time comes around.”

The musical is running from Thursday 5th to Saturday 7th February, to buy tickets, visit: www.thepaaonline.org/whats-on/oliver/
