The Sion College Afternoon at the Panto: Potted Panto at Wilton’s Music Hall

The West End’s longest running pantomime returns to the East End for 2024 due to popular demand! Potted Panto brings you seven classic pantomimes in 80 hilarious minutes! Wilton’s Music Hall welcomes back the Olivier Award nominated festive celebration following last year’s hit season. In a madcap ride through the biggest stories and best-loved characters from the wonderful world of pantomime, our dastardly double act dash from rubbing Aladdin’s lamp to roaming the golden streets of Dick Whittington’s London and making sure that Cinderella gets to the Ball.

As always, this pantomime outing is heavily subsidised with the cost to Sion College members and their parties held yet again at just £10 for adults, with no charge for school-age children. We have bought Stalls tickets, and as always drinks or ice creams will also be provided for everyone. The number of tickets is strictly limited. Priority in allocating places will be given to those with school-age children, and specifically to children and grandchildren of Members & Fellows. There is a provisional limit of 4 children per Member/ Fellow.

Sion College Lecture Series on Ecclesiology: Archbishop Stephen Cottrell - The church and its purpose

Present debates and divisions within the Church of England point to a crisis in ecclesiology. What is the purpose of the church, as we have inherited it, in the present day and for the future? This lecture will be the second in the Sion College Lecture Series on Ecclesiology and we are thrilled to be joined by the Archbishop of York, Steven Cottrell, who will speak to this valuable topic of the church and its purpose.

Womanist Theology: A Sion College Zoom Seminar with Professor CL Nash

What does it mean to read the Bible from a feminine or womanist perspective? How might looking at the Scriptures through these lenses enhance your ministry in the areas of Liberation theology and justice?

Sion College is honoured to host a Zoom Seminar with Professor CL Nash, a  womanist  theologian  and  ethicist,  who contributes  to  Pan-Africanism  and  gender by connecting the religious scholarship of women across the African Diaspora. She directs the Misogynoir to Mishpat Research Network and is a visiting scholar at the University of Edinburgh where she interrogates religious nationalism, historical inflection points in Western Christianity, and its impact on Black, African-descended people.
