From 12 - 23 February 2020 the UK’s leading children’s festival, Imagine, returns to Southbank Centre for its nineteenth year with twelve days of the highest-quality international performance, music, literature, comedy, creativity, parties, participation and free fun for children aged 0-11 and their grownups. The full programme will be announced on 2 December. Culminating at the festival is Imagine a Story : a nationwide creative writing project provided for free to primary schools and teachers devised by Southbank Centre and delivered with author Sharna Jackson ( High-Rise Mystery , Sunday Times Children’s Book of the Week), illustrator Dapo Adeola (Look Up!; The Last Last Day of Summer ) and Brixton-based publishers and founders of #BooksMadeBetter, Knights Of . In a giant ‘game of consequences’, each of the 33 participating schools – from a state school in Herefordshire to an international school in Westminster – writes one chapter of a story, responding to a brief outlined by Jackson. Once compiled, the completed novel will be illustrated by Adeola and professionally printed and published by Knights Of. More than 1,400 children are taking part in the project from now until Christmas.

In a city renowned for its theater scene, you can enjoy every kind of play or musical. Or take your pick from the city’s own Royal Opera, Royal Ballet, English National Opera, or London Symphony Orchestra. This chapter gives you the information that you need to plan your trip to include the performing arts. Getting the Inside Scoop In the United States, people think of New York City as the theater and performing arts capital. But from a global perspective, London may hold that title, based on the number of offerings and the quality of the per- formances. Of course, London didn’t attain this stature overnight. The city has been building its theatrical reputation since the Elizabethan era, when Shakespeare, Marlowe, and others were staging their plays in a SouthCOPYRIGHTED Bank theater district. A strong musical MATERIAL tradition has been in place since the 18th century. The performing arts scene, in general, helps to give London such a buzz for residents and visitors alike. Major British stars with international screen reputations regularly perform in the West End, although you’re just as likely to see a show starring someone that you’ve never heard of but who’s well known in England.

  • Rest Is Noise Southbank Berlin Flyer
    Royal Festival Hall and Queen Elizabeth Hall Saturday 2 – Sunday 3 March The Rest Is Noise is a year-long festival that digs deep into 20th-century history to reveal the influences on art in general and classical music in particular, inspired by Alex Ross’ book The Rest Is Noise. We have brought together some of the world’s finest orchestras and soloists to perform many of the most significant works of the 20th century. We reveal why these pieces were written and how they transformed the musical language of the modern world. If you’re new to 20th-century music, then this is your time to start exploring. There has never been a festival like this.
