The building was showcased perfectly during its opening by the first ever school performance in the new theatre. Our special guest, BAFTA award-winning film producer, David Heyman, was introduced with a showreel of some of his greatest works, including Paddington, Wonka, Barbie and Harry Potter, and giant red button was brought on stage for him to press to officially open the building. Pupils from across our performing arts disciplines then presented an exceptional programme of drama, dance and music. A huge congratulations to all involved in the wonderful evening – the first of many to come in the new building.
Thank you to all who made this engineering triumph possible – an immense addition to Brighton College.
