Introduction to Little Harlington Playing Fields This site has been the boroughs most used grass sporting facility since the late 1950’s. The site has 8 football pitches and 2 cricket tables; the pitches are home to several football clubs and casual cricket bookings. The pitches are of a good standard. During the summer period this site is used for junior football coaching courses and tournaments. Little Harlington is also home to a local model aircraft club who use the site on non-sport days. The main site building was built in the 1960’s and refurbished in 2006 to comply with the requirements of the Disability Discrimination Act. It provides facilities for both sports men and women. The clubhouse was recently re-let as ‘The Café on the Green’ as a café and coffee bar for the benefit of site users and passers by, following an extended period of closure. The site was subject to gravel extraction during the late 1990’s and was fully restored its current high standard on completion of works. A shelter belt planting scheme has been established on the two sides of the site to provide wild life habitat and reduction in noise and pollution. 3 Little Harlington Playing Fields Management Plan 2015 - 2020 ____________________________________________________________________________________ 2.

Vision for Little Harlington Playing Fields Our vision of Little Harlington playing fields is to promote the playing fields as a facility for passive and active recreation. We seek to continue to enhance the playing fields so that they are appealing to the public and ensure that the site is easily accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. Little Harlington playing fields is the most used sports facility in this part of the borough and we will continue to promote the area. 4. Site Aims and Objectives 4.1 Main Aims 1. Create and maintain a welcoming site 2. Ensure the site is healthy, safe and secure 3. Ensure the site is clean and well maintained 4. Ensure sustainable management of resources 5. Appropriate management of conservation and heritage features 6. Encourage community involvement 7. Ensure effective marketing of the facility 8. Implement effective management strategies These aims, with their associated objectives, form the basis for the main management operations on the site and will provide a foundation for all projects in the coming Five - year period 4.2 How these aims are being met and objectives for the future Create and maintain a welcoming site There are four entrances to the playing fields all of which are situated off Sipson road. There are two pedestrian entrances and a main vehicle entrance, the fourth is locked and only used council staff. There are two car parks. One being an overflow car park which is used when necessary. All accesses and path networks are well kept and the equipment and facilities provided within the park (e.g. parking, changing room, pavilion) potentially contribute to making the site more welcoming through making visitors more comfortable. The overall impression for any member of the community approaching and entering the park should be positive and inviting. The signs are essential for welcoming people into the park. The signs are by the two main footpath entrances at each end and present a map and general site information as well as contact information. A welcome sign is situated above the height barrier to welcome cars driving in. The diversity of interest at the site is also a welcoming factor. There is of course plenty of area for recreation for all ages, all easily accessible. There is also an area suitable for conservation for those who enjoy wildlife, and trees/shrubs and other plants as well as areas where relaxation can take place, for example benches. 10 Little Harlington Playing Fields Management Plan 2015 - 2020 ____________________________________________________________________________________ Objectives 1.

  • Introduction to Ecovenue Ecovenue Is a Signifi Cant Theatre-Specifi C Environmental Project Being Run by the Theatres Trust
    Introduction to Ecovenue Ecovenue is a signifi cant theatre-specifi c environmental project being run by The Theatres Trust. It aims to improve the environmental performance of forty-eight London theatres and raise awareness of how to make theatres greener. Ecovenue is promoting the sustainability of theatres and the reduction of carbon emissions through the provision of free theatre-specifi c, environmental advice. The project started in 2009 and runs until 2012. Forty-eight venues each undergo an Environmental Audit, and receive a Display Energy Certifi cate (DEC) and Advisory Report. They track their energy use through SMEasure. Each venue receives a second DEC a year after their fi rst to measure progress. Ecovenue includes a ‘DEC Pool’ of performing arts venues across the UK that have obtained DECs. The DEC Pool helps us to evaluate the project and share best practice and information, establish meaningful benchmarks, and provide a better understanding of energy use of theatres. Any theatre can join the DEC Pool. The Trust’s Theatres Magazine provides quarterly reports on the participants and the work of the Ecovenue project. The Theatres Trust Ecovenue project receives fi nancial support from the European Regional Development Fund.

  • Staging Krapp's Last Tape Staging Beckett
    Staging Krapp's Last Tape Staging Beckett (2012-15): The Impact of Productions of Beckett’s Plays on Theatre Practice and Cultures in the UK and Ireland The AHRC-funded Staging Beckett project is producing a database of all professional productions of Beckett’s plays in the UK and Ireland. At present, the project excludes radio and television productions, and adaptations, but includes visiting international productions of Beckett’s plays. We have put together a small selection of materials from the Beckett Archive at the University of Reading and other archival collections, including the Jocelyn Herbert archive, Wimbledon College of Art, University of the Arts, London, on productions of Beckett’s Krapp’s Last Tape, to give you a sense of the scope of the project. Please do not touch the exhibits, except for the reference books at the end of the exhibition, and PHOTOGRAPHY OR FILMING ARE NOT ALLOWED. You will have a chance to leave comments, or your own recollections of any production of Krapp’s Last Tape you have seen, at the end of the exhibition. Beckett was using state of the art technology in 1958, when Krapp’s Last Tape opened at the Royal Court Theatre, London – what would he be using if he were around today? 1. Screen shot of the Staging Beckett website, currently in development, which will allow you to access the Beckett database, and other research resources on productions of Beckett’s plays, such as essays, featured productions, and blogs. 2.

  • The Performance of Gender with Particular Reference to the Plays Of
    The Performance of Gender with particular reference to the plays of Shakespeare A thesis submitted to Middlesex University in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Luke Dixon School of Drama and Theatre Arts Middlesex University April 1998 MX 7309012 3 IIIýýWII IIIIIXVýýýwýýllllýý ABSTRACT An analytical history of the representation of gender on the English stage from Shakespeare to modern times is followed by a detailed examination of the National Theatre of Great Britain's production of `As You Like It' in 1967, the first production of a play by Shakespeare for over three hundred years in which the female parts were played by male actors. Subsequent cross-cast productions of Shakespeare's plays by Glasgow Citizen's Theatre, Prospect theatre Company, Lindsay Kemp, Theatre du Soleil and Goodman Theatre Chicago are discussed and the views of directors and critics of those productions analysed. The thesis then presents the results of a series of workshops with actors into the playing of gender and examines, by means of an experiment employing Gender Schema Theory, how actors construct gender in a production of `Twelfth Night'. The final part of the thesis describes a controlled experiment into audience perception of gender using a scene from `Hamlet'. Theories are presented about the nature of the performance of gender on stage and the use of theatrical conventions, the relationship between social conventions and stage conventions, about the way in which an actor builds a character, the influence of biological sex on actors' creativity, and about audience perception. TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter I Contexts, methodology, terminology.
