Christmas Through the Ages CHRISTMAS THROUGH THE AGES EVALUATION 03 –14 DECEMBER CHRISTMAS THROUGH THE AGES 2018 2018 1 HARLAN MANUEL PHOTO: INTRODUCTION ‘What a great place to bring two generations together at Christmas time’ Community Choir Member In response to increased reports of loneliness and isolation within elder community members and a need for local primary schools to find a performance space, The Old Vic developed a project that utilised the theatre’s foyer space to create a series of carol concerts delivered by local primary schools to community groups for the over 60s in London. Running from 03 December through to 14 December, Christmas Through the Ages organised nine carol concerts by seven local primary school choirs, one 60+ community group choir and welcomed audience members from 12 community groups for the over 60s as well as opening up to the local community and friends of the theatre. Teachers were also given the option of a Musical Director to assist them with their performance who then led the choir and audience members in a group sing-a-long to finish off the morning. The Old Vic provided free tea, coffee, mince pies and biscuits as well as some festive Christmas hats and carol song sheets for everyone to participate. PHOTOS: MANUEL HARLAN MANUEL PHOTOS: CHRISTMAS THROUGH THE AGES 2018 2 In total Christmas Through the Ages welcomed 259 ‘Warm, festive, unique, primary school students and 121 audience members welcoming, easy to participate, from local community groups.

We will recruit 12 primary school groups and 12 over 60s community groups and match them based on location for ease of access. We will provide a Musical Director who will be present at both rehearsals as well as a project manager for any additional support. This will create 12 intergenerational choirs who will perform a carol concert in the foyer of The Old Vic in December 2 019 . We will spend time throughout 2019 developing our audience ahead of the carol concerts through community engagements in the local area and new programmes such as Matinee Idols. We will also involve the Marketing team to promote and sell free tickets to ensure a full audience at each concert. We will continue to work with people aged 60+ from a range of organisations and develop an access fund to support organisations and individuals with travel to the theatre ensuring that the project is engaging with those who would benefit most.

  • A Lively Theatre There's a Revolution Afoot in Theatre Design, Believes
    A LIVELY THEatRE There’s a revolution afoot in theatre design, believes architectural consultant RICHARD PILBROW, that takes its cue from the three-dimensional spaces of centuries past The 20th century has not been a good time for theatre architecture. In the years from the 1920s to the 1970s, the world became littered with overlarge, often fan-shaped auditoriums that are barren in feeling and lacking in intimacy--places that are seldom conducive to that interplay between actor and audience that lies at the heart of the theatre experience. Why do theatres of the 19th century feel so much more “theatrical”? And why do so many actors and audiences prefer the old to the new? More generally, does theatre architecture really matter? There are some that believe that as soon as the house lights dim, the audience only needs to see and hear what happens on the stage. Perhaps audiences don’t hiss, boo and shout during a performance any more, but most actors and directors know that an audience’s reaction critically affects the performance. The nature of the theatre space, the configuration of the audience and the intimacy engendered by the form of the auditorium can powerfully assist in the formation of that reaction. A theatre auditorium may be a dead space or a lively one. Theatres designed like cinemas or lecture halls can lay a dead hand on the theatre experience. Happily, the past 20 years have seen a revolution in attitude to theatre design. No longer is a theatre only a place for listening or viewing.

    From: The Leader of Lambeth Council Our Ref: Leader 2020 03 20 Your Ref: Rt Hon Rishi Sunak Chancellor of the Exchequer House of Commons London SW1A 0AA Sent by email: [email protected] CC: [email protected] Tuesday, 24 March 2020 RESILIENCE OF LAMBETH’S CULTURAL SECTOR AND ITS SELF-EMPLOYED WORKERS Dear Chancellor We write with concern about the impact Covid-19 will have on our borough’s cultural sector and its self-employed workers. Lambeth is rich with culture and the borough’s creative and digital industries provide 22,000 jobs, generating £1.8bn GVA to the economy. The borough is home to 20 Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisations, including the National Theatre, BFI, Rambert and the Southbank Centre. Organisations that play a key part in ensuring the diversity and accessibility of London’s cultural sector are located throughout our borough, including the Black Cultural Archives, The Old Vic, Young Vic, Extant, Corali, Ovalhouse Theatre and Streatham Space Project. VCS organisations such as Iconic Steps, Creative Sparkworks and Spiral Skills join the afore mentioned organisations, and many more, in partnership led initiatives spearheaded by the council and backed by the GLA. Designed to strengthen the sector and achieve inclusive growth, these initiatives and the very viability of organisations are now under threat. In order to protect the resilience of the sector, Lambeth Council is calling for further mitigating measures from government. While measures such as the job retention scheme are welcomed, urgent clarification is needed over the groups of workers covered (e.g.
