[7985 MEMORANDUM. In London, in common with the rest of the country, all places for public enter- tainment are regulated and controlled in accordance with certain statutes. In dealing with the subject, Parliament has recognised two distinct classes of premises, and has enacted separate legislation for each class. The classes comprise premises licensed for (a) the performance of stage-plays, and (b) music and dancing, or music only. Stage-play Licences for stage-plays are governed by the Theatres Act, 1843 (6 and 7 licences. Vic., cap. 68). In accordance with this Act the Lord Chamberlain acts as licensing authority for theatres other than patent theatres "within the parliamentary bound- aries of the cities of London and Westminster, and of the boroughs of Finsbury and Marylebone, the Tower Hamlets, Lambeth and Southwark, and also within those places where Her Majesty, her heirs and successors shall, in their royal persons, occasionally reside." The rest of the county falls within the jurisdiction of the Council as successors to the justices of the peace. Music and Licences for music and dancing, or for music only, are governed by the dancing licences. Disorderly Houses Act, 1751 (25 Geo. II., cap. 36), and the Public Entertainments Act, 1875 (38 Vict., cap. 21). In this connection the Council is now the licensing authority for the whole of the county, the powers having been transferred from the Court of Quarter Sessions by the Local Government Act, 1888. Protection against The Metropolis Management and Building Acts Amendment Act, 1878 (41 fire, and 42 Vict., cap. 32), imposes certain powers and duties on the Council (as suc- cessors to the Metropolitan Board of Works) in connection with the structural defects and protection from fire in all places of public entertainment, whoever may be the licensing authority. Section 11 of this Act applies to those places in existence at the passing of the Act, and section 12 to those places to be provided thereafter. Both sections are so important that it may perhaps be as well to set out the salient words of the actual text as follows- 11.--" Whenever it appears to the Board that any house or other place of public resort within the metropolis which was at the time of the passing of this Act authorised to be kept open for the public performance of stage- plays- . under the authority of letters patent . or of a licence granted by the Lord Chamberlain . or by justices of the peace, or that any house, room or other place of public resort containing a superficial area for the accommodation of the public of not less than 500 square feet, which was at the time of the passing of this Act authorised to be kept open and which is kept open for dancing, music or other public entertainment of the like kind, under the authority of a licence granted by any court of quarter sessions, is so defective in its structure that special danger from fire may result to the public frequenting the same . the Board may, with the consent of the Lord Cham- berlain in the case of theatres under his jurisdiction, and of Her Majesty's Principal Secretary of State in all other cases, if in the opinion of the Board such structural dlefects can be remedied at a moderate expenditure S. require the owner of such house, room, etc. to make such necessary alterations . within a reasonable time . ." 12.-" The Board may from time to time make . regulations S. for the protection from fire of houses or other places of public resort within the metropolis to be kept open for the public performance of stage-plays, and of houses, rooms, or other places of public resort . containing a superficial area for the accommodation of the public of not less than 500 square feet, to be kept open for public dancing, music, etc., . under the authority of letters patent, . or of licenses by the Lord Chamberlain . or by any justices of the peace, or by any court of quarter sessions, which may be granted for the first time after the passing of this Act. From and after the making of any such regulations, it shall not be lawful . to keep open any such house, etc. until the Board grant to such person a certificate in writing under their seal to the effect that such house, etc. was on its completion in accordance with the regulations . ." Provisional Section 13 provides for the granting of provisional licences in the case of licences. premises about to be constructed or in course of construction, but such licences are not of any force until confirmed by the licensing authority. Means of exit. Further duties are imposed on the Council under section 45 of the Metro- politan Board of Works (Various Powers) Act, 1882 (45 Vict., cap. 66), in connection with the improvement and regulation of means of exit, etc. " Af $L, 'ii r-- By the Baths and Wash-houses Act, 1896 (59 and 60 Vict., cap. 59), pro- Swimming baths. vision is made for the grant by the Council of licences for music or dancing, or for both purposes, in respect of public swimming baths. found most convenient Method of In dealing with the subject in this return it has been classification. to separate the various premises licensed for public entertainment into the three following classes- (i.) Theatres. (ii.) Music halls and theatres of varieties. (iii.) Concert balls, dancing-rooms and other places of entertainment. The first class does not comprise all the premises licensed for the per- formance of stage-plays, for there are several places licensed both for stage-plays and for music and dancing, though they are not theatres in the generally accepted meaning of the term, the stage-play licence being only made use of occasionally. Such cases have been relegated in this return to one of the other two classes. The second class comprises those premises where variety entertainments are regularly given, and the character of which may, perhaps, be further indicated by the fact that smoking is permitted in the auditorium. The third class consists of those places which are not included under either of the first two classes. premises which either possess a licence Intoxicating An asterisk (*) denotes those liquor licences. for the sale and consumption of intoxicating liquors or are annexed to premises so licensed. I.-THEATRES. Statistics. There are in all 53 premises where the public performance of stage- plays takes place regularly. Of these, two (Drury-lane and Covent-garden) enjoy letters patent direct from the Crown, 41 are situated within the licensing jurisdic- tion of the Lord Chamberlain, and the remaining 10 are licensed by the Council. The total rateable value of these theatres amounts to £115,837, and they provide seating accommodation for about 64,151 persons. Adopting another basis of classification, the total may be divided into 27 central theatres with seating accom- modation for about 27,967 persons, and 26 suburban theatres with accommodation for about 36,184 persons. No justices' licence is required for the sale and consumption of intoxicating Intoxicating liquors. liquors in theatres, an excise licence (which is granted as a matter of course) being all sufficient for the purpose. It will be noticed, however, that in the case of one theatre licensed by the Council the prohibition of the sale or consumptio' intoxicating liquors on the premises is made a condition of the licence, and in another case a similar restriction is confined to the auditorium only.

  • Joseph Grimaldi
    Joseph Grimaldi The most famous and popular of all the clowns in harlequinade and pantomime was Joseph Grimaldi. Despite his Italian name and family origins, he was born in London in 1779, dying in 1837. His style of clowning had its origins in the Italian commedia dell'arte of the sixteenth century, but in the popular Harlequinades of the early nineteenth century he emerged as the founding father of modern day clowns. To this day he is commemorated annually by clowns in their own church, Holy Trinity in Dalston, East London. Joseph Grimaldi was the original 'Clown Joey', the term 'Joey' being used to describe clowns since his day. Of his own name he punned 'I am grim all day - but I make you laugh at night!' Grimaldi became the most popular clown in pantomime, and was responsible for establishing the clown as the main character in the Harlequinade, in place of Harlequin. His career began at the age of three at the Sadler's Wells Theatre. He was later to become the mainstay of the Drury Lane Theatre before settling in at Covent Garden in 1806. His three year contract paid him one pound a week, rising to two pounds the following year, and finally three pounds a week. His debut at Covent Garden was in 'Harlequin and Mother Goose; or the Golden Egg' in 1806. Grimaldi himself had little faith in the piece, and undoubtedly it was hastily put together on a sparsely decorated stage. However, the production ran for 92 nights, and took over £20,000. The lack of great theatrical scenes allowed Grimaldi to project himself to the fore 'he shone with unimpeded brilliance' once critic wrote.

  • British Music Halls Imagine Your Group Is Helping One of The
    Group 3: British Music Halls Imagine your group is helping one of the Beatles write his autobiography. You will work in small groups and use your knowledge of history to help your Beatle enrich his book. Here are the guidelines: • Below you will see your assigned historical term. Each group has a different term from a different period in their subject’s life. • You also have received sources related to that term. • Use this information to write a paragraph of 3-5 sentences for your Beatle’s autobiography. • Your sentences should connect his life to the term and use the first person. For example, “I remember watching the ships come in to the Liverpool docks.” • Write your paragraph on the board or on a piece of paper large enough for the whole class to read. • Share it with the class. • As the other groups share their paragraphs, copy the story in your “Autobiography of a Beatle” handout. Term: Music Hall For more than a century, British music halls were one of the main sources of entertainment for ordinary Britons, particularly from the working class. Music halls featured variety shows offering many different types of performance, but were best known for offering catchy songs in which the audience would join in on the chorus. Performers often laced their songs with comedy, sometimes wearing eccentric costumes on stage. While they eventually declined, music halls were still a popular form of entertainment immediately after World War II, a place where hard-working people could go and forget about their troubles. The music hall was a significant part of the Liverpool culture scene and had a large impact on the Beatles.

  • Howard Glover's Life and Career
    Howard Glover’s Life and Career Russell Burdekin, July 2019, updated September 2021 (This note was originally part of the preparation for a paper given at the Music in Nineteenth Century Britain Conference, Canterbury Christ Church University, July 5, 2019. See http://englishromanticopera.org/operas/Ruy_Blas/Howard_Glover_Ruy_Blas- harbinger_of_English_Romantic_Opera_demise.pdf ) This note was revised in September 2021 thanks to an email from David Gurney pointing me to Augustus William Gurney’s Memoir of Archer Thompson Gurney, which provided background on Glover’s early life as well as a summary of his character. A few other details have also been amended or added. William Howard Glover was born on 6 June 1819 in London, the second son of Julia Glover one of the best known actresses of the first half of the 19th century. Who his father was is less certain. By the end of 1817, Julia was living apart from her husband, Samuel.1 However, she was on very close terms with the American actor, playwright and author John Howard Payne, who was then living in London.2 The inclusion of Howard as Glover’s middle name and John rather than Samuel being written on the baptism record3 would strongly suggest that Payne was the father, although no definitive evidence has been found. Glover studied the violin with William Wagstaff, leader of the Lyceum Opera orchestra, and joined that band at the age of fifteen. By the age of sixteen had a dramatic scena performed at a Society of British Musicians concert.4 He continued his studies for some years in Italy, Germany and France (Illustrated Times 2 Sep.

  • APTG GOES to the TOWER on 4 March Over Three Dozen Members of Twenty Different Travel Trade Organisations Came to See the Ceremony of the Keys As Guests of APTG
    APTG GOES TO THE TOWER On 4 March over three dozen members of twenty different travel trade organisations came to see the Ceremony of the Keys as guests of APTG. They were hosted by a dozen guides, allowing us to share a very fine evening at the Tower and giving us a chance to show our special relationship with HRP and the Yeoman Warders. We funded drinks in the Yeoman Warders’ Club and each guide was given an up to date briefing before the event. This meant we could take the opportunity to explain the breadth of our knowledge, skills and languages combined with the ease of booking via the GuideLondon website. This is one of the ways your Branch Council is bringing work opportunities to APTG members. The evening was an uplifting experience and Yeoman Warder John Donald was a witty and knowledgeable host. The Ceremony was carried out by Gurkhas, commanded there for the first time by a female officer. The final, perfect ending came when the salute was taken by the Constable of the APTG Chair Nick Hancock and Yeoman Warder John Donald Tower General Sir Nicholas Houghton who, in his final words, made specific mention of guides being guests that night. Truly we have friends in high places! Over £300 was raised by the THE TOWER COMES TO APTG raffle for YW chosen charities and Nick Hancock gave an Yeoman Warder and Tower extra £250 from the Guild and APTG.

  • The Old War Office Building
    MINISTRY OF DEFENCE The Old War Office Building A history The Old War Office Building …a building full of history Foreword by the Rt. Hon Geoff Hoon MP, Secretary of State for Defence The Old War Office Building has been a Whitehall landmark for nearly a century. No-one can fail to be impressed by its imposing Edwardian Baroque exterior and splendidly restored rooms and stairways. With the long-overdue modernisation of the MOD Main Building, Defence Ministers and other members of the Defence Council – the Department’s senior committee – have moved temporarily to the Old War Office. To mark the occasion I have asked for this short booklet, describing the history of the Old War Office Building, to be published. The booklet also includes a brief history of the site on which the building now stands, and of other historic MOD headquarters buildings in Central London. People know about the work that our Armed Forces do around the world as a force for good. Less well known is the work that we do to preserve our heritage and to look after the historic buildings that we occupy. I hope that this publication will help to raise awareness of that. The Old War Office Building has had a fascinating past, as you will see. People working within its walls played a key role in two World Wars and in the Cold War that followed. The building is full of history. Lawrence of Arabia once worked here. I am now occupying the office which Churchill, Lloyd-George and Profumo once had.
