    V&A to open new Theatre and Performance Galleries Opening 18 March 2009 The V&A’s Theatre and Performance Galleries will open in March 2009 exploring all performance types from theatre and ballet to pantomime and rock music. More than 250 objects from the V&A’s collections will be on display including a first folio of Shakespeare's plays compiled in 1623, costumes and sets from award winning productions, a guitar Pete Townshend smashed during a 1970s performance with The Who and the original 1957 poster for Look Back in Anger at the Royal Court. Specially commissioned films of playwrights, directors and actors will include interviews with Michael Frayn and Sir Peter Hall. The new galleries will present the collections in a fresh way, focusing on the process of production and performance from initial conception and design to opening night. Set models, stage props, costumes, original posters, paintings and photographs will be on show, representing live performance in Britain over the last 350 years. Original scores, documents and manuscripts will include the only known Handel promptbook produced during his lifetime (1720), the score for Jesus Christ Superstar (1971) marked with alterations made by the conductor during rehearsals and an early draft manuscript of Sheridan’s The School for Scandal (1777). The pages of each will be digitised to allow visitors to explore the texts in detail. A large section on costume design will feature garments worn on stage by leading actors such as Richard Burton as Henry V (Old Vic, 1955) and Laurence Olivier in Oedipus Rex (Old Vic, 1945) as well as musical performers including Jimmy Page and Brian Eno.

  • 2008 Programme Review
    CHANNEL 4 REVIEW OF 2008 Major Themes in 2008 2008 was a year of dramatic creative renewal for Channel 4. In March, the organisation published Next on 4, a policy document laying out its public service vision for the future. Creative renewal in the schedule was evident even before then, with a raft of new programming in January occupying the space occupied in previous years by Celebrity Big Brother, which was rested. Over the course of the year, a range of authored series and campaigning programmes exemplified Channel 4’s renewed commitment to high-impact programming capable of engaging mass-market audiences, stimulating debate and generating interest in important social, political and cultural issues. However, Channel 4’s ability to fulfil its public service ambitions were curtailed by the downturn in the advertising market towards the end of the year, leading to significant reductions in the programming budget for both 2008 and 2009. In an increasingly competitive environment, Channel 4’s portfolio of channels and services maintained its viewing share at 11.9 per cent. The core channel share fell from 8.7 per cent in 2007 to 8.2 per cent in 2008. Next on 4 Dramatic changes are reshaping the UK broadcasting ecology, as it moves towards a fully digital world. Viewers will have access to dozens, if not hundreds of channels, as well as the rapidly growing variety of video services delivered online. In this context, Channel 4 reaffirmed its commitment in Next on 4 to remain a publicly-owned public service broadcaster whose primary purpose is the fulfilment of its legislative remit.

  • Strictly Come Dancing by Bruce Forsyth Bruce Forsyth Admits That 'Loneliness' Drove Him to Leave Strictly Come Dancing

But the 87-year-old entertainer has revealed he did not leave Strictly to shuffle off into retirement – it was but because he was lonely. He said yesterday: “Retire? Me, retire? I don’t want to give up. I’m going to keep going as long as people want me and nothing stops me.” Forsyth, whose exit from Strictly was mourned by millions of viewers, said: “I don’t regret it, it was time to go. I never enjoyed it as much as people thought. “The problem for me was that I didn’t get to meet anyone in the show, nor really get to know anyone very well – not even backstage. “And what I actually like is the interaction. It’s what I do. I found Strictly very lonely.” The star, who left Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman to fill his twinkle-toed shoes, said: “When I left I knew it was the right time. Leave it at the top. I just didn’t want to do it anymore. “It was the same with The Generation Game. I quit that show when we had 20 million viewers and people couldn’t believe it.” When asked about his Saturday night viewing, the star said: “I’ll record Strictly but I like to take my wife out to dinner on a Saturday night like a normal person.

  • White Lodge Museum Newsletter Issue 7
    Newsletter | Autumn 2012 Issue 7 Open House London Monica Mason donates portrait ‘Thank you for a very enjoyable visit – the mix of history, architecture and information about the modern ballet school made it a fascinating hour.’ Open House London visitor We enjoyed a third very successful year participating in Open House London – the city-wide festival of architecture which promotes free access to significant buildings. We were delighted to welcome over 450 visitors on the weekend of 22 and 23 September, despite an incredibly wet Sunday. The vast majority of visitors were coming to White Lodge for the first time. Many were interested in the fine Palladian architecture of this Grade 1 listed building, while others sought an insight into The Royal Ballet School. A new addition to this year’s tour was a circuit of the ornamental yew tree garden which remains from the original designs by Humphry Repton c.1805. Our expanding team of volunteers continue to offer us invaluable support, enabling us to broaden our public programming to include events such as Open House London. Some volunteers have been working with us for over two years, during which time the role has changed considerably as White Lodge Museum has developed. Volunteers are increasingly important in helping us achieve our goals, especially relating to learning and access. Our Open House visitor survey revealed extremely positive feedback, with many comments on how friendly and knowledgeable the guides were.
