The 6th form play this term is “Love and Information” written by leading British playwright Caryl Churchill.  In this fast-moving kaleidoscope, more than100 different characters try to make sense of what they know.   This is a thought-provoking exploration of information, identity, memory and love, performed by a talented cast!  Directed by Katie Hamilton.

LOVE AND INFORMATION was first presented by The English Stage Company at The Royal Court Theatre in the Jerwood Theatre Downstairs, London, England on 6 September 2012. The US premier was presented at New York Theatre Workshop, New York on 19 February 2014, directed by James McDonald.

The Wellington College Arts Fund (WCAF)

When the Annenberg Performing Arts Centre opened in September 2018, Wellington’s Director of Arts, Simon Williamson, was determined that as well as being a wonderful space for the College’s actors, musicians and dancers, it should be a focal point for local artistic communities, and particularly local schools.

To further this aim, an Arts Fund (WCAF) was created with money chiefly being raised from ticket sales of College performances. The WCAF is specifically available for Arts Education projects involving students of school age, and particularly school-based projects where the Fund can provide money for extra resources or expertise.

The WCAF has been delighted to issue a number of grants so far which have enabled a local school to buy a printing press for their art department, provided a performing arts department at another school with funding to purchase costumes, props and staging for future performances and has provided funding for a local production company to enable local youth actors to develop a mini-series, Alone Together, which explores the impact of Covid–19 on a class of Year 12 pupils.   If you would like further information please contact TheArts@wellingtoncollege.org.uk
