Worksop College Concert Series

Welcome to another spectacular season of the Worksop College Concert Series - a truly exceptional programme of live performance, run by the College to enrich music-lovers across the region. This non-profit venture is dedicated to presenting beautiful and inspiring music at an accessible cost, inviting both the public and our school community to experience excellence in performance and education. We are privileged once again to present artists of outstanding calibre from the UK and beyond, while also showcasing the exceptional talents of our own pupils and staff.

This year we host three professional lunchtime concerts which sit alongside the pupils’ regular Friday lunchtime concert slot; some evening concert times vary too, so do check the start times carefully!

The series continues the strong spirit of education married with quality and diversity. There will be much to marvel at, from the exuberant virtuosity of the Baroque Wild Men and the potentially unexpected melodic beauty of the Riot String Trio, to the splendour and solemnity of Drewent Brass - a 28-piece Championship Band.

We also continue our cherished partnership with the world-renowned a cappella ensemble VOCES8, whose inventive programming and immaculate ensemble have inspired both pupils and audiences since their debut here thirteen years ago.

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

College Junior Musical - The Lion King

Ever keen to develop the talents of our youngest performers, and while Disney work on the live action re- make of the hit animation, this junior, abbreviated version of what is often dubbed as ‘Hamlet the musical’ (with animals!) will feature only actors from Y7 & 8 at the College.

With songs by Elton John and lyrics by Tim Rice, and a  book by Roger Allers and Irene Mecchi, follow the walk on the wild side as Simba discovers his destiny to take his rightful place at the head of the pride after the death of his father, with the help of Nala, Timon and Pumba.
