George Turley
playing Malvolio,
in Twelfth Night,
during the Artsfest
We were delighted to have virtuoso
performances by ows Amy Tress, Thomas
Humphreys and Anton Crayton, along with
a wonderful performance by accomplished
singer, pianist and songwriter Rae Evans
who is also one of our esteemed singing
teachers. There were Chapel recitals galore
with Sean Farrell, Dylan Quinlivan-Brewer
and Simon Williamson.
The inaugural
Haldane Organ Competition was presided
over by internationally acclaimed organist
and teacher Ann Elise Smoot who presented
prizes in both Junior and Senior categories.
The extraordinarily talented Ben Montague
played two concerts in the Theatre. Having
recently been on tour where Ben played
the O2 Academy Sheffield and O2 Academy
Islington, Ben also supported guitar supremo
Joe Bonnamassa (Black Country Communion)
and recently found himself in the Rock God
stratosphere, playing alongside Nick Mason
from Pink Floyd and Roger Daltrey from The
Who, as part of racing superstar Eddie Jordan’s
all-star band at Silverstone ! Ben played to
appreciative audiences who also bought his
cds by the dozen. It was wonderful to see
Ben duetting with the talented Hermione
Hedges-Robinson, playing a version of No
Republic’s Apologise to rapturous applause.
Jonathan Shotton, who holds the title of
Britain’s number one magician, performed an
array of tricks which left everyone befuddled,
mesmerised and wanting more !
The Festival Circus wowed with an array
of tightrope walking, juggling, clowning and
wonderful, traditional circus entertainment.
With her star well and truly in the firmament
Shappi Khorsandi is one of the uk’s fastest
rising female stand-ups and is side-splittingly
funny. Shappi played a gig in two parts which
was brilliantly sharp, observational and full of
audience participation ! Shappi performed
to an audience of over seven hundred pupils,
parents and public. A definite high point for
our ArtsFest.
