Schools are invited to be part of the
thrill of Jongosi where young people are exposed to the best South Africa can
offer by way of live theatre, music and fun!
Keeping arts alive for future generations,
the Hilton Arts Festival works proactively to introduce young people to the
wondrous all-encompassing world of live performance and is again offering a
Jongosi / youth component as part of the main festival.
The festival invites schools to participate
in the 9th Jongosi Festival. Save the date if you would like your learners,
drama, music or dance classes to experience the best of live performances on
offer in the country. Jongosi, embedded in the main festival, takes place on
September 14, 2018, and has a specifically, carefully-selected age-appropriate
programme aimed at Grades 6 to 10.
The full programme will be released in due
course. Meanwhile, email admin@hiltonfestival.co.za to make sure you get the
programme and booking details the moment they are released. In 2016, seats
booked out extremely quickly. The organisers hope to release the programme
before the end of the current school term (end June) so teachers can make
decisions prior to booking opening at the end of July.
Festival Director, Sue Clarence stated:
“The day is structured to ensure that learners will be fully occupied attending
a variety of fabulous, innovative theatre. The aim is to instil a love of the
performing arts, to provide enjoyment and to stimulate thought and discussion.”
Give your pupils the opportunity to submerge
themselves in quality performance at the 26th Hilton Arts Festival this year at
Hilton College in KZN from September 14 to 16, 2018.
The festival would not be possible without
the generous support of Hilton College, Tiso Black Star, Grindrod Bank, Black Coffee
Design, DWR Distribution, Bidvest Car Rental, Extreme Events, KZN Dept of Arts
& Culture, Assitej South Africa, Loud Crowd, Sappi, Redlands Hotel, BASA,
