Music & Drama
Music and Drama are at the heart of Wimbledon High School. Whether it be performances in assembly, taking part in one of the many concerts that fill our calendar, or participating in musicals or plays, there are opportunities for students to explore their creativity and imagination.
There are regular opportunities for our musicians to perform at a professional level, including our annual central London concert where the WHS Concert Orchestra, Big Band, Sinfonia and choirs, including Chamber Choir, A Cappella and Canto perform.
Meanwhile, Wimbledon High is bursting with opportunities for students who enjoy performing and want to experience the joy and accompanying camaraderie that comes from being in a show. Recent productions include Guys and Dolls, Singing in the Rain, Footloose, Antigone and Emil And The Detectives.
Music and Drama scholarships are available at Year 7 and Year 12 entry. Our Music Scholars hold recitals throughout the year and our Young Musician of the Year and Concerto competitions give the opportunity for the finest musicians to compete and perform on our biggest stages. Weekly Friday Jammin’ performances are more relaxed affairs – performances over a breaktime snack within a hugely supportive atmosphere.
Our facilities comprise the Rutherford Centre for the Performing Arts and our wonderful Auditorium.
