STUDENTS are set to take the stage by storm at a school musical production.

A cast of pupils from King Alfred's Academy in Wantage will perform their take on the award-winning Broadway show In the Heights, with a series of shows this week.

The musical, which also had a hugely successful run in the West End, is set in a lively Latino neighbourhood in New York City and features music and lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda.

Members of the public are welcome to attend the secondary school's production, with the first taking place at 7pm this Wednesday.

Performances are also scheduled at the same time on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, in addition to a matinee show on Saturday at 1.30pm.

Each takes place at the secondary school's theatre, at its Centre Site in Portway, and tickets are available by calling 01235 2256700 or emailing boxofficeenquiries@kaacademy.org.
