Fusion 2015
Paaras Kantaria writes, “The inaugural MTS-Northwood College cultural show ‘Fusion’ took place at Northwood College on Thursday October 8 and raised over £3000 for the two sponsored MTS charities in India (Purkal Youth Development Society (PYDS) & the Raphael Centre) and Cancer Research UK. The evening – of music, dance and even some mind-boggling magic! – was a fantastic opportunity for the MTS boys and Northwood College girls to showcase their talents to a packed audience of both friends and parents. There was so much in the show to enjoy! Rajan Dehiri’s breakdancing masterclass; Max Kendix’s rousing vocals; Kushal Patel’s suspenseful drumming; Charlie Carter’s breath-taking rapping; and Tej Thakkar’s incredible magic tricks, were but a few of the highlights.To round it all off, Udaya Sharma and his band gave the audience an enthralling journey through time with their ‘History of Hip-Hop’ medley.
Organising sound and light, marketing, sponsorship, rehearsals, and the acts were just some of the hectic activities performed by committee members in the run up to the show at a particularly busy time of their academic careers. On the night, the backstage team, led by Andy Keener, ensured that the show ran smoothly, and the sound and lighting teams were on top form. A huge thank you has to go to the teachers involved, especially Miss Blowes at MTS and Mrs Smart at Northwood College for their help in ensuring the show’s success: well done to all who took part! Thanks go to all boys who served on the Fusion Committee 2015: Udaya Sharma, Ayan Batra, Paaras Kantaria (Co-Chairmen) Rishav Punatar, Ewan Patel, Krishen Shah, Parin Vaghjiani, Gaurav Dewan, Rajan Sharma, Premal Pattani, Pujan Vaghjiani, Andy Keener, Athishan Vettivetpillai, Karan Khanna, Keval Amin.
