April 2009. Gumley House Convent School. The first rehearsal for the production of "Twelfth Night or Whatever!" is taking place. Seven months, three school performances and many laughs later, the cast waits nervously in the wings of the Riverside Studios in Hammersmith. After the success of the play at their school, the cast performed at the Shakespeare Schools Festival. The production was raised from the dead as a half hour version.

The theatre was packed to the back and the audience waited in eager anticipation for the play to begin. They were not disappointed. The school put on an unforgettable show with singing, dancing and yellow stockings.

Paloma Ley, who played Sebastian, said: “People were stunned that my sister Isabella and I, who were playing twins, were not the same person when our characters reunited at the end. There was an audible gasp throughout the auditorium!”

One member of the audience commented: “I thought it was amazing and the acting was brilliant.”

The Riverside Studios was flooded with applause for "Twelfth Night or Whatever!" and everyone left with smiles on their faces.

At the wrap party there were emotional tears as the cast waved farewell to the play that they had worked on for so long. As they said: “We’ll never forget this experience and we’ll carry our memories of it with us for the rest of our lives.”
