An extra buzz around campus

06 June 2018

Every year, Academy students take the stage at our annual Talent Buzz, in the spirit of friendly competition. The event is run by the Organisation Committee (OC), an elected body of grade 11 students.

Talent Buzz 2018 was held on Sunday 27th May, at the Commons. This year we saw 25 performances by students representing Junior and Senior Schools, and an electric audience of over 250 residential students and faculty members.

A running tradition at Aga Khan Academy Hyderabad’s Talent Buzz is the grade 11 production. This year we saw over 50 DP-1s on stage performing a dance they had choreographed themselves. “This is a night we’ll remember forever,” said OC member, Aryan Srivastava, “I’m already looking forward to next year’s Talent Buzz under the new organizational team.”
