Tuesday 3pm: "Is it OK to fancy Michelangelo's David?"
Panel discussion. Art Historian Jerry Rayner is joined by colleagues to discuss one of the most iconic sculptures in Western art, its influence, and its indefinable appeal. Is it somehow wrong to be attracted to a sculpture of a biblical figure? Is this a symbol of male sexuality, or of male domination? The audience will be encouraged to join the discussion. All welcome, including parents and staff.

Wednesday 5pm: "Noye's Fraud? Britten's revolutionary drama"
Panel discussion. The Director and Musical Director of Noye's Fludde are joined by colleagues to discuss the Arts Festival production of Benjamin Britten's opera, and whether the opera represents a high point and/or a turning point in British music drama. The audience will be encouraged to join the discussion. All welcome, including parents and staff.

Thursday 5pm: "Experience Romanticism"
Panel discussion. From the Three Musketeers to Les Miserables by way of Sleepy Hollow, the Romantic movement changed the face of literature forever. Alastair Swiffen, David Gillett, Tim Shaw and Jonathan Smith convene to discuss European Romantic literature, and ask if it carried within itself the seeds of what was to come next. All welcome, including parents and staff.
