    Committee: Date: Planning and Transportation 28 February 2017 Subject: Public 22 Bishopsgate London EC2N 4BQ Construction of a building arranged on three basement floors, ground and 58 upper floors plus mezzanines and plant comprising floorspace for use within Classes A and B1 of the Use Classes Order and a publicly accessible viewing gallery and facilities (sui generis); hard and soft landscaping works; the provision of ancillary servicing and other works incidental to the development. (201,449sq.m. GEA) Ward: Lime Street For Decision Registered No: 16/01150/FULEIA Registered on: 24 November 2016 Conservation Area: St Helen's Place Listed Building: No Summary The planning application relates to the site of the 62 storey tower (294.94m AOD) granted planning permission in June 2016 and which is presently being constructed. The current scheme is for a tower comprising 59 storeys at ground and above (272.32m AOD) with an amended design to the top. The tapering of the upper storeys previously approved has been omitted and replaced by a flat topped lower tower. In other respects the design of the elevations remains as before. The applicants advise that the lowering of the tower in the new proposal is in response to construction management constraints in relation to aviation safeguarding issues. The planning application also incorporates amendments to the base of the building, the public realm and to cycle space provision which were proposed in a S73 amendment application and which your Committee resolved to grant on 28 November 2016, subject to a legal agreement but not yet issued. The building would provide offices, retail at ground level, a viewing gallery with free public access at levels 55 and 56 and a public restaurant and bar at levels 57 and 58.

  • ACM LONDON: ARTS in CONTEXT – Spring 2014 [Note: This Is a Preliminary Syllabus, Prepared During the Summer and Autumn Months of 2012 and Updated in Spring 2013
    ACM LONDON: ARTS IN CONTEXT – Spring 2014 [Note: this is a preliminary syllabus, prepared during the summer and autumn months of 2012 and updated in spring 2013. It will be developed with a great deal more specificity nearer the spring term of 2014 as theatre bookings fall into place] Course: Theatre in London: the Art of Adaptation Instructor: Steven Marc Weiss, PhD Associate Professor of Theatre Arts Coe College, Cedar Rapids, Iowa e-mail: [email protected] phone: Course Description: This course will provide both an in-depth examination of the astonishing variety of theatre offerings available in London during each seven-week term and an equally penetrating look at the literary (or other) source materials that, directly or indirectly, inspired each production. As we consider various ways in which most theatrical productions are developed—either based on other source material or on writers’ original ideas—our ongoing focus of study will be on the intertextuality between the page (drama) and the stage (theatre). “Adaptation” is the key concept underlying the investigation, and the term will be broadly defined to include: (1) how playwrights sometimes adapt non-dramatic source materials (historical events, narrative fiction, etc.) into dramatic texts; (2) how theatre collaborators sometimes attempt to adapt for viable stage production dramatic source material from another medium (film, for instance); (3) how playwrights sometimes adapt existing, older playtexts to craft more contemporary “versions” of them; (4) how contemporary playwrights sometimes, either consciously or inadvertently, alter playtexts they “translate” from other languages; (5) how theatrical practitioners “translate” words on a page into action on the stage after carefully studying the texts for clues that will help them conceptualize and eventually actualize productions based on those clues; and (6) how playtexts are, by necessity, “adapted” by directors, designers and actors to “work” for the space(s) in which they are presented.
