I‟Ve Done a Lot of Lecturing. Well. Talking. I‟Ve Talked
I‟ve done a lot of lecturing. Well. Talking. I‟ve talked to journalism students, I‟ve talked to film production students, I‟ve talked to people who want to be radio presenters. I talk on the radio quite a lot. I‟ve even talked to Women‟s Institutes and Rotary clubs. Once, I accidentally talked to a classroom full of police officers while in the line of a duty as a local newspaper reporter. When I say accidentally, I mean in the literal sense - an accident being an unfortunate incident that happens unexpectedly. I‟ll come back to that. But this is something of a first. Lecturing at this festival about this particular subject. Thank you for being here at the special moment when a journalist, writer and broadcaster becomes a man. That is to say, a bona fide, Ilkley Lit Fest lecturer. First I have to say thank you to the Walter Swann Trust for asking me to deliver this inaugural lecture. A genuine privilege to honour a really good man and one who I know meant a lot to this community. He meant a lot to this beautiful town. Actually, I should say this beautiful, somewhat gentrified, Yorkshire town. Because that is, after a fashion, going to be the subject of this lecture. Me, standing here, in this beautiful, somewhat gentrified, Yorkshire town, talking about theatre. When preparing for tonight, I read that you should give your lecture a title. So the inaugural Walter Swan lecture is called: Gentrification, storming the Castle and Accidentally Lecturing a Classroom Full of Police Officers. -

The Changing Shapes of Red Ladder
THE CHANGING SHAPES OF RED LADDER The Agitprop Street Players – as Red Ladder was originally known – emerged when a group from a socialist information service performed a play at the Trafalgar Square Festival of 1968. The plays were short and biting, morale-boosting sketches often relying on striking visual images to get the message across, they were highly portable relying on few props and were performed at mass political demonstrations, tenants association meetings, weekend schools etc. Gradually the basis of the work broadened and plays that fed directly into particular struggles and issues developed; such as „The Big Con‟ against the Industrial Relations Act and „The Cake Play„against productivity bargaining, The 60‟s were an era of riots, demonstrations and revolt – economic prosperity served to broaden political debate and theatre wanted to take part in this revolution of ideas. As it was conventional theatre changed little so the „alternative‟ emerged in the shape of fringe theatre. Red Ladder became a prominent member of the fringe movement, known as one of the best established political theatre companies in Britain. By 1971, the name Red Ladder evolved, after a much loved and used prop. There also evolved a policy of taking theatre to „working class‟ audiences in places where working people usually find their entertainment, this now included trade union clubs. By 1973 the commitment of the company was recognised with an Arts Council grant of £4,000 and in 1976 the company moved from London to Leeds, Yorkshire and is still based in the city, although it continues to tour on a national basis. -
