  • Waterloo Building Height Study, 2018
    Waterloo Building Height Study, 2018 1. Introduction 1.1 This study has been undertaken to inform Lambeth’s approach to tall buildings in Waterloo as part of the Lambeth Local Plan Review, 2018. 2. Background The Waterloo Opportunity Area 2.1 The London Plan identifies Waterloo as an Opportunity Area and the objectives are outlined in the Mayor’s Waterloo Opportunity Area Planning Framework (2007) which include: ‘Development potential in the area should be maximised given Waterloo’s status as an opportunity Area and its location within the Central Activities Zone and to accord with the strategy of providing the highest levels of activity at locations with the greatest transport capacity’. 2.2 The OAPF identified two broad areas suitable for tall building – above and around the station and on the commercial spine behind the Riverside (Belvedere Road and Upper Ground) – based in part on the presence of tall buildings in these locations already. The associated illustrations generally show a cluster of tall buildings over Waterloo Station which would be delivered as part of a station redevelopment which would push the passenger concourse to ground level allowing the platforms to be extended. 2.3 The OAPF recognises the need for development to respond to this sensitive context: ‘Additionally, development potential has to be tempered against the normal impacts of development assessed by the planning system including the impact on character areas and on local and strategic views’. (OAPF page 99). 2.4 Figure 49 identifies five areas of possible development within and around the railway station: 1. Elizabeth House and surrounds, 2.

  • Michel Tremblay Auteur
    MICHEL TREMBLAY AUTEUR NOTES BIOGRAPHIQUES Figure dominante du théâtre québécois depuis la fin des années 1960, Michel Tremblay s'est aussi imposé comme romancier, traducteur, adaptateur et scénariste. Né dans un quartier populaire de l'est de Montréal, il découvre très tôt sa vocation d'écrivain. Dès ses études secondaires, il écrit des poèmes, des pièces de théâtre, des romans. À l’adolescence, il entreprend la rédaction de contes fantastiques qu'il réunit plus tard en un recueil : Contes pour buveurs attardés. À 18 ans, il s'inscrit à l'Institut des Arts graphiques, où il apprend le métier de linotypiste, qu’il exerce de 1963 à 1966. En 1964, Michel Tremblay soumet une pièce, Le train, au concours des Jeunes auteurs de Radio-Canada : il y remporte le premier prix. La même année, il rencontre André Brassard qui deviendra le metteur en scène de presque toutes ses pièces, jusqu’en 2003. En 1965, André Brassard utilise quelques-uns des Contes pour buveurs attardés dans un spectacle consacré à la littérature fantastique : Messe noire. La même année, Michel Tremblay écrit Les belles-sœurs. Après la lecture publique des Belles-sœurs le 4 mars 1968 au Centre d’essai des auteurs dramatiques, la pièce est créée au Théâtre du Rideau Vert, le 28 août 1968. Elle connaît alors un succès retentissant, au point d’avoir fait l’objet de près de 600 productions au Québec et à l'étranger. Écrites en joual, un registre de langue propre à Montréal, Les belles-sœurs donnent une vision renouvelée du quartier ouvrier où est né Tremblay.

Directed by Robert McWhir Choreographed by Robbie O’Reilly Designed by David Shields Lighting by Richard Lambert Executive Producer Clive Chenery SYNOPSIS Spindlewood, like most towns of age, has its traditions. But no practice, custom, or Old Wives Warning is so firmly adhered to as ‘The Turning of the Key’. Every year, on the last night of winter, as the first day of spring unfolds, the townsfolk gather to take part in a strange ritual. They meet in the centre of the town square, where a statue bearing the likeness of a young girl stands, poised and still, one hand raised as if to toast the sky. Constance has stood in the square for as long as any can remember. And she is never more lifelike than tonight.

  • Visioning West Norwood and Tulse Hill Introduction
    Visioning West Norwood and Tulse Hill Introduction Visioning West Norwood and Tulse Hill: Have your Say! The Lambeth Local Plan 2015 sets out planning policies for Lambeth to guide growth in Projects housing, jobs, infrastructure delivery, place-shaping and the quality of the built environment over the next 15 years to 2030. Together with the London Plan, it forms the development plan Delivered for the borough. The spatial strategy and strategic objectives for West Norwood and Tulse Hill are set out in Policies PN7 and ED1 of the Local Plan. PN7 promotes the role of West Norwood as a vibrant district centre through the development of key sites. The area includes West Norwood Commercial Area to the south, which is designated as ‘Key Industrial Business Areas’ (KIBAs) by ED1. The Council is preparing a Masterplan for the West Norwood and Tulse Hill area to expand on the guidance in the Local Plan and provide a framework for managing change and development in this area. A Masterplan is a framework. It sets out key principles of an area, and creates a vision for its future. It shows the overall development concept that includes urban design, landscaping, infrastructure, service provision, present and future land uses and built form. This work will provide the evidence for the Local Plan Review that is currently underway. Through this piece of work, we are developing four interlinked documents to Interlinked documents: guide growth and investment in future years. • An Economic Vision for West Norwood & Tulse Hill to guide economic growth and

  • London Borough of Lambeth (2550)
    Statement to the Examination in Public of the Draft London Plan 2017 (as modified August 2018) Matter 88 – Town Centre Network London Borough of Lambeth (2550) – 1 March 2019 Is the town centre network set out in the Plan justified and would it be effective in ensuring that identified needs for main town centre use developments are met in appropriate locations in accordance with national policy? 1. Lambeth’s representation on this matter relates to the classification of Waterloo in the London Plan town centre hierarchy. At present, only Lower Marsh/The Cut is recognised as a CAZ retail cluster. In Lambeth’s view, this does not adequately reflect the scale of existing and emerging main town centre uses or Waterloo’s potential for further investment and therefore does not provide an effective means to plan for and monitor the centre going forward. Lambeth believes a larger Waterloo CAZ retail cluster should be identified, to complement other London Plan designations for the area and to allow for more effective local policy for Waterloo and the Southbank to come forward through the current review of the Lambeth Local Plan. Proposed classifications in the Draft London Plan (with suggested modifications August 2018) (DLP) 2. The wider Waterloo and Southbank area has the following classifications in the DLP: Entirely within the Central Activities Zone (CAZ) Waterloo Opportunity Area (characterised as ‘maturing’ with remaining potential for 1,500 homes and 6,000 jobs; the capacity identified in the current London Plan 2016 is 2,500 homes and

  • NTC-R+J-Programme.Pdf
    Message from the Chairman Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, and a warm welcome to the Network Theatre Company's production of Romeo and Juliet . Andy Bradshaw directs, with his inimitable style, a large and experienced cast in this popular Shakespeare play, ably supported by his backstage crew. What a wealth of talent we have in the Network Theatre Company, as you will see from this production. Congratulations to everyone involved. Tonight you will be sitting in a recently refurbished auditorium. Under the guidance of Paul Lunnon, a dedicated crew has removed the old staging and seating rostra, and has replaced them with a new, adaptable layout, making our theatre more comfortable and practical. We, in the NTC, are very grateful for all the hard (and heavy) work undertaken. So, tonight: sit back and enjoy the show (our third production this year). Enjoy the performances, the music, the dancing, and new stage and seating layout. May I also remind you that the Green Room bar is open before and after the show, as well as during the interval, and thank you for your support. Kay Murray Chairman of the Network Theatre Company June 2011 A Word from the Director Staging Romeo and Juliet is a challenge. It has been done and done and done thousands of times. It was not without trepidation therefore, that I approached this production. What, I wondered, could there be done that has not already been done? The answer came, as so many do, in a moment of quiet lucidity: truth... You see, I have seen so many productions of this show I have lost count.

It includes 682 buildings and sites known to be at risk from Tneglect, decay or inappropriate development - everything from an early 18th century church designed by Nicholas Hawksmoor, to a boathouse built during WWI on an island in the Thames. These are sites that need imagination and investment. In London the scale of this challenge has grown. There are 12 more assets on the Heritage at Risk Register this year compared to 2015. We also know that it’s becoming more expensive to repair many of our buildings at risk. In the face of these challenges we’re grateful for the help and support of all those who continue to champion our historic environment.
