MILTON KEYNES FESTIVAL
OF THE ARTS
for Dance, Music and Drama
Registered charity number 293601
Affiliated to the British and International Federation of Festivals for
Dance, Music and Drama of which Her Majesty the Queen is Patron
Foreword from your Festival Committee
Dear Friends
Welcome to the 48th Milton Keynes Dance, Music & Drama Festival.
Our 2015 festival was our biggest ever, with more performers taking part and a lot of very positive
feedback from entrants, teachers and visitors alike. Our adjudicators were highly complimentary of
the performances they saw and without exception very much enjoyed their time in Milton Keynes.
Six of our festival performers were invited to take part in the inaugural Milton Keynes Young Musician
of the Year competition and we were delighted that our festival President Mr Hilary Davan Wetton
agreed to be one of the judges, alongside popular adjudicator Liz Childs. After much deliberation
they awarded the title to cellist Emily Noithip, with each performer taking home an amount of prize
money, a certificate and commemorative shield. This event will now be an annual fixture in our
festival calendar and in 2016 will take place at 3pm on Saturday 5 March at The Venue Theatre so
do come along if you are able and support these young musicians.
Many 2016 entrants used the newly installed online entry system for drama and music and this
seemed to work well, as did the newly-introduced PayPal facility.
We are privileged to have the continued sponsorship by Kawai Pianos who donate several of their
beautiful concert grand and upright pianos to our music festival for our performers’ use and we are
grateful to Neil and his team for their generous support and for also agreeing to extend their
patronage to the Milton Keynes Young Musician of the Year competition. Thanks must also go to
the companies who advertise in our syllabus and programme as we are a self-financing charity and
their support really makes a difference.
Our festival would not take place without the voluntary help given by our friendly festival stewards
who cheerfully undertake a range of jobs from receptionists and certificate clerks to announcers and
adjudicators assistants, and we are so grateful for the time they willingly donate to the festival.
We have our new festival fixture on 5 March dedicated to ensembles and orchestras to allow this
growing section to expand and to enable soloists to be part of ensembles without clashes or having
to rush from one to the other.
In dance, please do not forget that we are delighted to accept entries for our dance festival from
performers at all levels. We have a non-competitive section for local schools which might prefer to
give their pupils a chance to perform on the lovely stage at Walton High without the pressure of
competition! A write up from a professional adjudicator can be a very useful addition to their
examination dance portfolio. Any type of dance is allowed in the festival, including ballroom and
musical theatre.
We hope that our performers enjoy their festival experience this year and if you are an audience
member, thank you for your support and we hope you will enjoy being entertained by our wonderfully
talented festival entrants. Good luck everyone and enjoy it!
Very best wishes from the Milton Keynes Festival Committee

The festival is intended for amateurs

Professionals may take part as Adjudicators, Accompanists, Conductors and
Officials.
For the purpose of the Festival, professionals are those for whom income is, or
has been, derived from the branch of the profession in which they wish to
compete or perform or whom have completed a full-time college course in the
specialist subject in which they wish to compete or perform.

2.
The committee reserves the right to:



accept or reject any proposed entry.

Entries

4.
The entries should be sent to Entry Secretary by the date specified.
Age Limits
In all sections the operative day for determining age is 1 February
5.
Standards

Standards are indicated either by age, grade, or by experience in tuition. Where a
class is divided into grades, the entrant should be able to play to that standard,
but not yet have passed a higher grade than that specified.
The piece played must reflect the standard entered, ie a piece set for a grade 5
exam should not be played in an Elementary (grade 4) class. Only one grade may
be entered in all graded classes, and entrants and/or teachers are responsible for
ensuring the correct grade has been selected.

6.


Multiple Entries
(Music Classes only) Entrants may perform once only in each class, except in
duet, trio or ensemble classes where an entrant may perform more than once
provided a different part is performed. Entrants who are members of more than
one choir or ensemble are permitted to perform as a member of each choir or
ensemble to which they belong.
(Speech Classes only): A performer may only enter a class once. When
performing in a duologue or group class a second entry is permitted provided a
different part with a different partner/group is performed.
7.
Own Choice Pieces

The festival is under a legal obligation to supply the Performing Rights Society
with details of all items to be performed.
Own choice titles and composers must be given on the entry form for all sections.
A copy of each Own Choice piece must be handed to the adjudicator’s steward at
the time of the performance.
Photocopies are acceptable provided an original is used for the performance. The
photocopy will be retained and destroyed after the adjudication of the class.
Speech & Drama Section Entrants do not have to seek copyright permission
for any poetry, prose or solo dramatic items performed, to a time limit of 10
minutes.


Duologues and group dramatic activity are not covered by this agreement, and
copyright for these items should be sought by performers at the time of entry.
Solo dramatic items must be announced with title and author at the time of
performance to qualify for copyright indemnity, and the performer must not change
the words or gender of the character.
8.
Time Limits

The time limit for each class is shown in the syllabus and this must be strictly
adhered to.
Any performance in which there is an excessive overrun of the time limit will be
stopped by the adjudicator or adjudicator’s clerk.
Where the performance is obviously ending as the time limit is reached, the
adjudicator’s steward will allow the performance to conclude, but will inform the
adjudicator when the time limit is reached, and his/her category and remarks will
not cover material performed after the time limit is exceeded.
Although time limits are specified you are required to time your piece/s and enter
this under “Performance Time” as accurately as possible on the Entry Form.

Photocopying of Music
The Festival cannot legally allow anyone to play/perform from photocopied music,
and has no choice but to disqualify performers who do so, unless before their
class starts, they can produce evidence showing that the publisher’s agreement
has been sought and given.
The only photocopies the Festival can allow in law are:
Copies for the adjudicator’s use, which will be destroyed at the end of each class;
For an awkward page-turn which may hinder a performance;
Those that comply with current photocopying laws.
The Festival has to be strict with this regulation. You are asked to comply with it
to avoid unpleasant situations arising during the Festival.

Child Protection Policy
Milton Keynes Festival of the Arts
for Music, Dance and Drama
The British and International Federation of Festivals for Music, Dance and
Speech works for amateur festivals everywhere to help create thousands of
educational performance opportunities for children and young people each year.
The Federation, and our member Festivals, are committed to ensuring safe
environments for children and young people and believe that it is always
unacceptable for a child or young person to experience abuse of any kind.
We recognise our responsibility to safeguard the welfare of all children and young
people, by a commitment to recommend best practice which protects them.
This policy applies to our Board of Trustees, paid staff, Adjudicator members,
volunteers, students or anyone working on behalf of the Federation and our
member Festivals.
We recognise that:
•
the welfare of the child/young person is paramount.
•
all children, regardless of age, disability, gender, racial heritage, religious
belief, sexual orientation or identity, have the right to equal protection from all
types of harm or abuse
•
working in partnership with children, young people, their parents, carers and
other agencies is essential in promoting young people’s welfare.
The purpose of the policy:
•
to provide protection for the children and young people who participate in our
festivals, including the children of festival members
•
to provide staff and volunteers with guidance on procedures they should
adopt in the event that they suspect a child or young person may be
experiencing, or be at risk of, harm
We will seek to safeguard children and young people by:
•
valuing them, listening to and respecting them
•
adopting child protection guidelines through procedures and safe working
practice for staff and volunteers
•
recruiting staff and volunteers safely, ensuring all necessary checks are
made
•
sharing information about child protection and safe working practice with
children, parents, staff and volunteers
•
sharing information about concerns with agencies who need to know, and
involving parents and children appropriately
•
providing effective management for staff and volunteers through
supervision, support and training.
54
The Federation will review this policy each year in November in line with Safe
Network guidance or sooner in light of any changes in legislation or guidance. All
changes will be communicated to our member Festivals in time for the start of the
new Festival year.
Creating Safer Festivals for Everyone
The Federation and its member Festivals use the following policies and
procedures to create Safer Festivals for everyone:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
A single, definitive Child Protection Policy adopted by all Federation
Festivals.
One or more designated Festival Safeguarding Officers (FSO) appointed for
each Federation Festival. Milton Keynes Festival contact : Mrs Janice
Hughes Phone: 01908 676987
Best practice advice in the form of Safe Working Practice and Festival
Child Protection leaflets, with support and training for all Festival staff and
volunteers. Including clear reporting procedures for anyone with a concern
about a child.
Appropriate recruitment and induction procedures for all new Festival staff
and volunteers responsible for providing safe environments for everyone
attending / performing at a Federation Festival.
All Festival personnel wear an official badge. All teachers/parents/guardians
/carers are asked to report all incidents of any nature to anyone wearing a
badge. All reported incidents will be handled in accordance with the Safe
Working Practice and Festival Child Protection best practice advice. In
addition we will ensure the availability of a quiet area / room where concerns
can be expressed in private.
For the duration of a Festival all teachers/parents/guardians/carers are
responsible for the continuous care and supervision of their own children /
pupils. If they are unable to attend personally, they must delegate their
responsibilities to an identified adult and ensure that their children / pupils
are aware of the identity and name of the person responsible for their care.
This includes supervision throughout all Festival venues, practice and
changing areas that may be provided. The Festival cannot take
responsibility for any property left unattended.
No unauthorised photography, audio or video recording of children and
young people is allowed at our Festivals. Where parents/guardians/carers
do not wish photos, videos or filming to be taken at all, then the responsible
adult attending should ensure that their child is not included in official
photos, videos or films.
Some children and vulnerable adults may have specific needs in order to
take part. If this is the case we ask the responsible teachers / parents /
guardians / carers to contact the Festival Organisers when submitting the
entry. The Festival actively seeks wherever possible to meet these needs,
but must know beforehand in order to prepare support – or to advise that
help cannot be provided on this occasion.

The Festival’s Child Protection Policy and approach to Creating Safer
Festivals for Everyone is published explicitly in our Syllabus, Programme
and Website. By completing and signing the entry form (or online entry
system) all parents / guardians / carers and teachers of entrants under 18
(or vulnerable adults of any age) confirm that they give (or have obtained)
