Worksop Music Concert Series

Run by the College for music-lovers across the region, this concert series is a non-profit venture that provides beautiful and inspiring music at an accessible cost.

Attracting artists from all over the UK and beyond, these concerts also feature home-grown talent from the school’s pupils and staff.

This year there are two professional lunchtime concerts included in this brochure which sit alongside the pupils’ regular Friday lunchtime concert slot; some evening concert times vary too, so do check the start times carefully!

This year’s programme continues the strong spirit of education married with quality and diversity. There will be much to marvel at, from the improvisation skills of John Lenehan as he injects vibrancy and spontaneity into the silent films projected just above our 9’ concert grand piano, to the hilarious all-singing-all-dancing musical comedy cabaret show of Graffiti Classics.

We are proud to continue our association with the world-renowned a cappella group, VOCES8, who’ve been inspiring pupils and audiences alike with their inventive programming and immaculate ensemble since our journey started with them twelve years ago.

There really is something for everyone and we look forward to seeing you in our audience soon.

College Musical: Oliver!

Consider yourself at home with Lionel Bart’s classic musical based on Charles Dickens’ novel, Oliver Twist.

Filled with iconic songs - ‘Food, Glorious Food’, ‘Gotta Pick a Pocket’, ‘As Long as He Needs Me’ - and memorable characters - Fagin, Dodger, the Bumble/ Corneys, Nancy - what better choice could there be to fill the theatre with songs, dancing...and people?

2018 marks the 50th anniversary of the famous film version of the musical and 2019 marks the 20th anniversary of the death of Lionel Bart (who also wrote the Bond theme ‘From Russia with Love’). If you consider yourself a person of culture, do anything to get a ticket; otherwise, when it comes to reviewing the situation, you’ll realise you’ve missed out... and that’ll be your funeral!
