A Rock Show to remember

Bedales Senior, Co-curricular

Last week, the Bedales Rock Show turned 21 – and we celebrated with three sold-out nights (plus a dress rehearsal and a special lunchtime set for Prep School parents!) in the Olivier Theatre.

A total of 89 students from across all year groups at Bedales Senior took to the stage to deliver 36 outstanding performances, proving we had no intention of resting on our laurels after marking two decades of the Rock Show last year.

Weeks of rehearsals paid off as students captivated the crowd with a two-and-a-half-hour showcase of unstoppable musical entertainment. The setlist, as ever, was an eclectic mix of old and new, ranging from Prince to Bill Withers, Madonna to Queen, along with some brilliant originals composed by Bedales students.
