The play, written and directed by Saltus music teacher Sue Hall, is entitled "The Magic of Mozart'' and will feature music written by the renowned, 18th Century Austrian composer. A mini version of Mozart's famed opera, `The Magic Flute', will form part of the presentation.

The entire J6 class of 75 students will participate in the programme, either in acting parts or by playing musical instruments. "By delving into the details of Mozart's life, the students have become thoroughly engrossed in the subject,'' Mrs. Hall said.
