Local young musicians from Highgate School perform live on the Tea Lawn in Waterlow Park from 2.30pm to 4.30pm on Sunday 16 June.
A lovely, relaxing afternoon of summer sunshine, picnics and free live music performed by local school children as part of this year’s Sundial Sundays season. Plus, the Highgate School Bands performance will coincide with this year’s Highgate Festival!
Insieme Chamber Ensemble present Mozart’s delightful comic chamber opera, Bastien and Bastienne, outside on the beautiful Tea Lawn as part of part of this year’s Highgate Festival
Bastien and Bastienne was written by Mozart when he was only 12, purportedly for a performance in the Garden Theatre of the famous ‘Magnetist’ Dr Mesmer. It’s a simple and delightful tale about the trials of Bastien and his shepherdess love Bastienne, with additional mesmeric magic from the Wizard Colas plus plenty of other mischief. Waterlow Park’s Tea Lawn, where a Shepherd and Shepherdess are already in residence as statues, is the ideal setting for this lovely pastoral piece.
Come along for a charming summer evening’s entertainment on the Tea Lawn outside Lauderdale House, performed by our resident Chamber Opera Ensemble, Insieme.

As part of this year’s Highgate Festival, Blacktooth Productions present Highgate Histories at Lauderdale House on 19 June.
Blacktooth specialise in literary readings washed down with rollicking anecdotes and live music. For one night only they present an offbeat celebration of an area known for its vivid history and illustrious residents. The programme includes pieces by Dickens, Marvell, Coleridge and Christina Rossetti, along with tales of Highgate’s Great and Good (and not so good) and episodes from the area’s occasionally murky past – some of them with a direct bearing on Lauderdale House.
