WITNEY CHRISTMAS LIGHTS SWITCH-ON EVENT. Friday 30th November, Market Square, Witney
50 members of WOAPA's Adult Singing Group and 50 WOAPA students (Witney Youth Choir) took to the the MAIN STAGE in Witney Market Square at this year's Christmas lights celebration. The performance (described as 'one of the highlights of this year's ceremony') started immediately after the official switching on of the lights by Prime Minister David Cameron and was seen by an audience of several thousand. The crowd sang and danced along for 15 minutes of WOAPAs own versions of some seasonal favourites.
As a result, we have had several requests from people wanting to join our Academy of Performing Arts in Witney near Oxford. If you would like a free taster session, please contact us.
Future Christmas performances include:
