The Wall Project is a charitable initiative of Wesley College, Melbourne and Nuworks which features the premiere musical theatre staging of in June 2009. The musical will be presented by people from the Wesley College and wider Melbourne community who will volunteer their time to h support Habitat for Humanity. It intends to raise $55,000 to help rebuild, enlarge and protect a school in the village of Turabi in Afghanistan. In the final moments of the opera, however, the dramatic wall is torn down, and the audience is left on the threshold of the possibilities that exist within diversity.
