  • 'Master Harold'... and the Boys
    Freehouse present ‘Master Harold’... and The Boys by Athol Fugard At the Southwark Playhouse 31 August - 18 September at 7.30pm Saturday Matinees at 3pm Press Night Tuesday 31st August at 7.30pm Directed by Joyce Branagh Cast Jonathan Broadbent Designed by Becky Hurst Ewart James Walters Lighting by Tony Simpson David Webber A lazy, rainy afternoon in Port Elizabeth. In a small deserted café the smooth, jazzy sounds of Sarah Vaughan can be heard coming from the jukebox. Whilst Hally does his homework, Sam and Willy scrub floors, practice the quickstep, and share their daydreams about better times. ‘There’s no collisions out there Hally. Nobody trips or stumbles or bumps into anybody else. That's what that moment is all about. To be one of those finalists on that dancefloor is like…like being in a dream about a world in which accidents don't happen.’ Athol Fugard (1932 -) is South Africa’s greatest living dramatist. Drawn from a haunting incident in his own childhood, Athol Fugard’s uniquely personal account of 1950’s South Africa won the Evening Standard Best Play Award 1983. This production of ‘Master Harold’… and The Boys enjoyed a successful run at the Bristol Old Vic, where it was first produced in 2002. Joyce Branagh has recently co-directed a production of Twelfth Night which is currently touring nationally, and she will be directing Summer Again at the Orange Tree in October. She has just been appointed as the Literary Director for Watford Palace Theatre Jonathan Broadbent has worked with the Royal Shakespeare Company, Royal National Theatre, Shared Experience, and Bristol Old Vic and recently in Mill on the Floss for Nottingham Playhouse.

  • The CAMRA Regional Inventory for London Pub Interiors of Special Historic Interest Using the Regional Inventory
    C THE CAMPAIGN FOR REAL ALE The CAMRA Regional Inventory for London Pub Interiors of Special Historic Interest Using the Regional Inventory The information The Regional Inventory listings are found on pages 13–47, where the entries are arranged alphabetically by postal districts and, within these, by pub names. The exceptions are outer London districts which are listed towards the end. Key Listed status Statutory listing: whether a pub building is statutorily listed or not is spelled out, together with the grade at which it is listed LPA Local planning authority: giving the name of the London borough responsible for local planning and listed building matters ✩ National Inventory: pubs which are also on CAMRA’s National Inventory of Pub interiors of Outstanding Historic Interest Public transport London is well served by public transport and few of the pubs listed are far from a bus stop, Underground or rail station. The choice is often considerable and users will have no di≤culty in easily reaching almost every pub with the aid of a street map and a transport guide. A few cautionary words The sole concern of this Regional Inventory is with the internal historic fabric of pubs – not with qualities like their atmosphere, friendliness or availability of real ale that are featured in other CAMRA pub guides. Many Regional Inventory pubs are rich in these qualities too, of course, and most of them, but by no means all, serve real ale. But inclusion in this booklet is for a pub’s physical attributes only, and is not to be construed as a recommendation in any other sense.
