Boris is waiting patiently for our Highgate Festival concerts to begin on Monday night – as you can see, he has placed himself firmly in a cello case so that he is right at the front of the action.
If you would like to join him at Highgate School chapel we still have a few socially distanced seats left for the 21st, 22nd and 27th although the 25th June concert is now sold out. If any seats remain, we will be selling them at the door. The concerts start at 6.30 and the chapel will be open from 6pm. Come to the main gates opposite the Gatehouse pub and we will be there to welcome you. And just to remind you of all the musical treats on offer this week:
