DAISY will be hoping to pull it off at the Alice Ottley School tonight when GCSE students take to the stage for their annual play.

Twenty 15 and 16-year-olds have been rehearsing for weeks for Denise Deegan's classic play Daisy Pulls it Off.

Their hard work will come to fruition at 7.30pm when parents and friends pack into the school hall.

The production finishes its two-night run tomorrow.

"The play centres around Daisy, who is sent to an all-girls' school to study," said Stuart Wishart, head of drama.

"Basically, it's a send up of life in a girls' school, which is pretty relevant to us, but it's also about how the girls can play their part in the community."

Tickets cost £4 and can be bought on the door.
