Description
Welcome to Performing Arts Winchester! (PAW)
As a society, we offer our members the opportunity to perform in a variety of showcases. We welcome everyone to our sessions, whether you have years of experience or if you’ve never performed before!
Our different sub-societies
We are made up of four sub-societies:
- PAW Presents Act
- PAW Presents Dance
- PAW Presents Glee
- PAW Presents Production Arts
Our semester showcases
In Semester 1, we work towards a society wide showcase, allowing members from all of our sub-societies to perform together, and to do what they love most.
During Semester 2, each sub-society works towards their own showcase. These showcases not only include numbers taught by our amazing teachers and leaders, but it also offers the opportunity for members to put forward their own solos/duets/small groups
All of our showcases are teched by our incredible Production Arts team, who work tirelessly behind the scenes to make everything look fabulous!
Our aims as a society
We strive for a sense of community, with friendly committee/team members who are there to support you throughout the year. PAW is a great way to make friends, and we encourage people to try new things at our sessions, whilst doing something you love.
Our social media pages:
- Facebook: PAW Presents … 25/26 (insert sub-society)

We look forward to seeing you in September!

MEMBERSHIP T&Cs
Where an activity group (sports team/society/representational network) has a competitive element or other external factors that affect the number of participants, your membership may be subject to criteria other than joining the group via this website. If this results in your membership not being able to be accepted, you will be informed (with any relevant details) and your membership will be refunded.
Membership will not normally be refunded if you cease being a student, if you voluntarily end your membership, or if you are subject to disciplinary action that removes your membership status.
CODE OF CONDUCT
By joining this activity group you are confirming your compliance with Student Union policies and bye-laws, particularly as it pertains to conduct, personal safety and acceptable behaviour.
Initiations: At no point should you feel pressured to drink and get involved in what others are doing, for example to join in with drinking games or ‘challenges’, if you don’t want to. If you are part of an activity group it is completely your choice whether or not you attend a social event. Activity groups are prohibited from carrying out initiation ceremonies, or any initiation-type behaviour, either on or off campus. If you ever feel pressured to take part in social activities as part of an activity group, we would strongly encourage you to report it to us here: https://www.winchesterstudents.co.uk/report It is our upmost priority that you feel safe engaging in Union activity, and there is support available for you if you have experienced or witnessed anything that made you feel uncomfortable or concerned you.
