Wellington College Arts Festival 2018
26-30 March 2018 The theme of this year’s Arts Festival is ‘jazz’. While the idea of jazz will not run through all the pupil workshops and associated activities, it does provide a coherent spine with sessions on drama, dance and music directly relating to jazz. In addition, there will be an exhibition on jazz, three separate talks about jazz, jazz-influenced architecture workshops, pop-up jazz concerts, and a final performance that will be heavily influenced by jazz. Stand-up comedy, with its dependence on improvisation and riffing, is a near relation of jazz. So pupils should expect a fair amount of jazz, presented in many different ways. Every year, the college bangs its drum (no pun intended) about the importance of arts and culture in general, and - more importantly - acts on this belief. The effect of the arts on young peoples’ minds can be profound, and represent a significant part of exploring the possibility of perceiving the world differently, developing the senses, and understanding what it means to simply enjoy yourself.
