Drama teacher and Arts on Tour co-ordinator Ms Robyn Hickey said the production received sensational feedback and provided priceless education for its students.
"The students learnt invaluable experiences that will last with them all their life," she said.
The Arts on Tour initiative combines talent from the Drama, Music and Visual Arts programs within the school and has been running successfully for the last 17 years.
However, state funding cuts meant that for the first time ever this year's programme relied on the generous support of Bendigo Bank (Swansea/Bicheno Branch) who offered a grant to help cover expenses associated with the tour.
Calow's Coaches also chipped in to provide transportation.
Due to poor road conditions between St Marys and Bicheno the tour was unable to hold its final homecoming performance last week.
However, the show will go on this Wednesday November 18 at 7PM at the St Marys District School Hall - community members are encouraged to attend.
