Everyman

The Festival staged a brand-new drama production, Everyman, directed by Simon Callow which used a score by Jean Sibelius in its first ever British performance.

The Elizabeth Carthy band played. They were described in the Festival brochure as “a powerhouse traditional fiddler with vocals to match”, and in 1998 received a Mercury Music Prize nomination for Red Rice.

Arts make life better

Norfolk & Norwich Festival brings tens of thousands of people together in celebration – it has been doing this for over 250 years. Through our May Festival and our year-round arts education work, focusing on children and young people, we lead and support celebration, creativity and curiosity in communities across Norfolk and the region.

This year we begin an exciting new initiative, Festival Connect & Create that will bring creative opportunities to those schools and communities with least provision. Creativity transforms people’s lives. It builds cohesive communities, develops vital skills and supports health and wellbeing. We want more people to have access to creative opportunities.

Please consider donating to support and develop this work. With your help we can increase access to the life changing power of the arts.
