Dauntsey’s is thrilled to announce the programme for its third Summer Festival, a celebration of the talents and aptitudes of the pupils which will run from 27th June to the 2nd July.

- A Lower School drama production of RL Stevenson’s adventure novel, Treasure Island
- A night of Opera from Dauntsey’s talented vocalists with highlights from Don Giovanni, The Marriage of Figaro and many more
- Rockfest – a really special event where pupils channel their inner rock stars!
- Peaky Blinders – a new narrative Dance piece, inspired by the hugely popular BBC TV series
- A presentation of stories and tragedies of Ancient Greece and the story of Troy from the Classics department – Greek Tragedy and The Legend of Troy
- A showcase of Art A level and GCSE work in the Summer Exhibition, held in the Art School
Mark Lascelles, Head Master, Dauntsey’s, said:
“The Summer Festival provides a platform for everyone in our community to showcase their skills and abilities, whether that is in philosophy, classics, sport, maths, art, drama, dance or music. I hope it will also provide our leavers with the opportunity to go out with a bang and many happy memories!
“I think everyone – parents, friends, pupils and visitors – will find something to delight and entertain as we celebrate the conclusion of another memorable year here at Dauntsey’s.”
