Elijah Vetma to Star in Anti-Bullying Musical

Elijah Vetma is the 12-year-old student who wrote a letter to the Australian newspaper,  The Geelong Advertiser, about being bullied at school.  His action brought international attention to the problem of bullying.  Now, he will be leading a children's choir in an anti-bullying musical called Together We Can Stop It.

The boy has both Tourette's and Asperger's Syndromes.  He will be leading on the song called "This is a No Put-down Zonea," written by music teacher Deb Podbury.

Give my regards to Broadway, Elijah!  Good Luck!
