It features a roller skating robot, a teenager in love, a love-struck chef, the enigmatic Captain Tempest, and a mad scientist who wants to take over the world.

The show takes place at Saint Augustine's Theatre Wednesday, March 22 starting 7pm, Thursday, March 23 at 7pm, and finally Friday, March 24 at 6pm.

Tickets cost £5 and are available from the school reception.
