classic unenthusiastically. Reading about the harsh schooling conditions
of Dotheby Hall, the students complain that their own school is bad
enough. The teacher, Mr Nicholls, attempts to organize a musical to make
the lesson fun but this draws complaints from another teacher and the
Headmaster.<br></span>
<span class="Normal-C1">Drawn back into time the schoolchildren
re-live the story of Nicholas Nickleby and learn that their schooling is
not quite as harsh as the Victorian experience!</span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;"><br><span class="Normal-C4">Youth Only</span><span class="Normal-C3"><br></span>
