We are excited to be able to present our brand new musical, The Great Gatsby.
We are pleased to announce we have found a way to safely hold our annual musical – outside in The Manor Gardens, Tuesday 20 to Thursday 22 July 2021, 7pm.
The students have been working hard to rehearse the school’s 30th consecutive musical, and all within the restrictions on schools, rehearsing outdoors, in bubbles, often in the wind and rain throughout April, May and June!
It is very exciting then, that we can invite you to this year’s musical The Great Gatsby. This has been specifically written by school staff, using the famous novel, responding to the musical talents of the current students. The musical features a host of very familiar songs, arranged in a jazz fusion-style with something for everyone.
This outdoor show, in the idyllic grounds of The Manor, promises to be a magical evening. We encourage you to bring blankets and folding chairs, along with your own picnics and drinks. There will be no refreshments on sale, other than the interval ice creams, which are included in the ticket price. So you bring the wine, and we’ll bring the glitz and glamour of the jazz age, for what should be a memorable summer evening.
Tickets are on sale now via the online school shop here (priced £10 for adults and £8 for students, including an ice cream). You will get an acknowledgement of purchase, but no physical tickets. Your name will be added to a guest list for the show night chosen. Please purchase tickets before the chosen performance day. In the event of light, intermittent rain the show will go on, so bring an umbrella. If the weather is inclement, we will let you know the show has been postponed, and you will be welcome to attend the next performance.
