    Hannah Neate 1 the Place of Theatre in Nottingham in the 1960S This Paper Discusses the Place of Theatre In

    Hannah Neate The Place of Theatre in Nottingham in the 1960s This paper discusses the place of theatre in Nottingham in the 1960s. Three themes will be focused on: ideas of metropolitan versus provincial culture; traditional versus modern; and performance cultures. These themes will be used to identify what it was that made Nottingham a place on the theatrical map of the 1960s and how within the city the theatres I mentioned worked with and against each other to identify themselves via performance. Many writers on space, place and landscape have noted these terms are inextricably interwoven. 1 For this reason my exploration of the theatrical places of Nottingham will also venture into the performance of spaces and landscape of the city. Following closely on the great outburst of creative vitality in the English theatre – the wave of new playwrights and players, the achievements of individual directors and permanent companies – has come renewed interest in theatre building. All over the country theatres are being planned, opened or restored, in towns where the old theatres have been closed or become intolerable or inconvenient, and in places that have never enjoyed live drama. 2 This quote is indicative of the responses that were being written from the mid­1960s regarding a post­war boom of theatre building that had started across Britain from the late­1950s. The very fact that I have chosen a quote from Country Life demonstrates that commentary on these new theatres was not solely restricted to the theatre press and review pages of broadsheets – this was something of national interest.
