The Abbey Years 3 and 4 Perform ‘Tom Sawyer’
7 Feb 17
On Wednesday 1 February , Years 3 and 4 transported their audience to the Southern State of Missouri beside the banks of the Mississippi River. Set against the colourful backdrop of a steamboat, the cast performed a lively musical play that told the story of a young, mischievous boy named Tom Sawyer, who lives with his Aunt Polly in the sleepy village of St Petersburg. Tom and his friend Huckleberry Finn have many adventures together, but their lives are changed one night when they visit the graveyard and witness a murder.
Mark Twain’s original novel was written over 100 years ago and the talented young cast faithfully retold the story through song, dance and acting.
