Cait interviews cast members for the new production of the Tom Stoppard move blockbuster, Shakespeare in Love, adapted for the stage.Young Will Shakespeare has writer's block... the deadline for his new play is fast approaching but he's in desperate need of inspiration. That is, until he finds his muse – the courtly Viola de Lesseps. This beautiful young woman is Will's greatest admirer and will stop at nothing (including breaking the law) to appear in his next play, disguising herself as boy-player Thomas Kemp. Against a bustling background of mistaken identity, ruthless scheming and backstage theatrics, Will's love for Viola quickly blossoms and inspires him to write his greatest masterpiece.The story is, at heart, a romantic comedy but it is also about the glorious world of show-business - nothing much changes in theatre and that London's Bankside in 1593 was much like commercial theatre today. Money men assert their power, scripts get rewritten, egos have to be massaged, rivalries develop and last-minute crises intervene. Yet, by the magic that is theatre - somehow Shakespeare manages to turn the distinctly unpromising Romeo and Ethel the Pirate's Daughter into the masterpiece that is Romeo and Juliet.

We now join RNIB Connect Radio's Toby Davey on another visit to Tate Modern on London's Bankside to explore the work of Polish Artist Magdalena Abakanowicz who radically transformed textile work by taking her woven work off the gallery walls and turning the thread and rope into three-dimensional sculptures which were coined Abakans with Ann Coxon the Curator of the exhibition Magdalena Abakanowicz:  Every Tangle of Thread and Rope. Ann began by giving Toby a bit of background to Magdalena Abakanowicz life and work leading up to the time of the production of her Abakans and the reactions from critics, the general public and other artist to this radical way of using thread and rope. Toby and Ann then focused on the forest of Abakans which fill one of the large gallery spaces at Tate Modern talking about in some cases their almost human form, the natural almost muted colours of the thread and rope and how they fill the space with an almost earthy smell which underlines the feeling of being amongst a forest of the Abakans. Ann also talked about how influential Magdalena has been on other artists during her life and on young artists today with her installations and Abakans.  Magdalena Abakanowiczz: Every Tangle of Thread and Rope continues at Tate Modern until 21 May 2023 and audio described guided tours by members of Tate staff can be booked by either emailing hello@Tate.org.uk or calling 020 7887 8888  More details about the Magdalena Abakanowiczz:  Every Tangle of Thread and Rope at Tate Modern  can be found by visiting the following pages of the Tate website- https://www.tate.org.uk/press/press-releases/magdalena-abakanowicz-every-tangle-of-thread-and-rope Image shows: (Magdalena Abakanowicz Abakan Red 1969 © Fundacja Marty Magdaleny Abakanowicz Kosmowskiej i Jana Kosmowskiego) a large bright red, abstract sculpture, supspended in the air and made of sisal fabric measuring around 4m x 4m x 4m. It is almost a circle shape from one angle and has a straight point sticking out from the middle with fabric hanging down underneath it.

EP115 - Tasters Choice (G.L. Pease Bankside)

We now join RNIB Connect Radio's Toby Davey on a visit to Tate Modern on London's Bankside to explore a new major exhibition of the work of Prague-born Slovak artist and Sculptor Mária Bartuszová with Juliet Bingham the Curator of this new major exhibition of Mária's work.   This new exhibition brings many of Mária Bartuszová's work together for the first time in one place and some that have not been on display in the UK before as well as  some of Mária's work which she used in workshops with visually impaired children in the 1970s and 1980s. Juliet began by telling Toby about Mária's life and work, before explaining about the inspiration for her work which includes the use of natural forms found in nature and the human form, how Mária used plaster in her work in a very tactile way too.   Then Juliet talked about the workshops that Mária ran with visually impaired children, using her sculptures to allow the children to explore their forms and structure through touch and exploration.   Juliet ended by sharing with Toby three examples of Mária's work that are on display in the exhibition that are both her favourites and ones that Juliet would recommend visitors to see that showcases the breadth of Mária's work and how her work is inspiring artist and sculptors today. The Mária Bartuszová exhibition runs at Tate Modern until 16 April 2023 and audio described guided tours by members of Tate staff can be booked by either emailing hello@Tate.org.uk or calling 020 7887 8888 and there is also a guide for visually impaired visitors that can be downloaded from the Tate website too.  More details about the Mária Bártuszova exhibition at Tate modern can be found by visiting the following pages of the Tate website- https://www.tate.org.uk/whats-on/tate-modern/maria-bartuszova (Image shows: 'Untitled' (1985) © Tate (Joe Humphrys) one of Bartuszová's works resembling different sized broken egg shells stuck together.

Back in the dark days of Lockdown number 2 at the end of 2020 Lottie and Linda were enjoying the TV series Harlots.  Whilst chatting about it Lottie remembered seeing the blue plaque that is dedicated to Priss Fotheringham, the "second best whore in London".  And the idea for a podcast episode was born!For reasons many and varied it's taken us a whole year to bring the episode to you and we do hope you enjoy it.  It's not been all beer and skittles (or ping pong balls!) for sex workers through the ages, though.  In fact the life for the (mainly women) involved in the trade is often very grim indeed. More than any other episode this one has brought home to us just how little anything changes from one century to the next.  We are very grateful to Moira Buffini, writer of Harlots and Lyn Brown MP for their contributions.Further reading:Nell Gwyn, by Charles BeauclerkCity of Sin, London and its Vices, by Catharine ArnoldMadams - Bawds and Brothel Keepers of London, by Fergus LinnaneAn English Madam:  The Life and Work of Cynthia Payne, by Paul BaileyInteresting Viewing:Harlots, by Alison Newman & Moira Buffini available on DVD and to streamPersonal Services, by David Leland, available on DVD and to streamThis episode:Hosts:  Lottie Walker & Linda HansellGuests:  Moira Buffini  & Lyn Brown MPFarewell to Bankside read by Steve Taylor Editor:  Jacob TaylorIf you'd like to help us in our work to keep the podcast going do please consider becoming a patron.  It's really easy to do, just go to either:  https://www.patreon.com/bluefiretheatre or https://ko-fi.com/bluefiretheatre where you can donate.  This is all an expensive business and even the smallest donation helps us get our shows on the road and keep the lights on in the studio.  We really appreciate and are so grateful for all your support.

According to The Oxford Companion to Shakespeare, edited by Stanley Wells and Michael Dobson, the phrase “the Clink” described a specific prison in an area of London called Bankside, where Shakespeare is known to have lived at least from 1597-1596. The prison itself was housed inside what used to be a manor house owned by the Bishop of Winchester. It was the closest prison to the theaters of Bankside, which included The Globe and the Rose theater, among others. This prison was best known for being a prison for debtors. While Shakespeare's works do reference the word “clink” to describe the sound of metal clanging against other metal, there is no direct reference to the prison by name. However, in Cymbeline Act III Scene 3, Guidierius says “A prison for a debtor, that not dares To stride a limit.” While Shakespeare may or may not have been referring to the debtor's prison located right down the road from his theater with this remark in the play, nonetheless, The Clink itself was a notorious house of incarceration during Shakespeare's lifetime. Legendary as an entirely horrible place, the prison gained a reputation for being where prisoners were sent to die. Stories are told of the prisoners being left in their cells to starve to death, or even drown in the rising tide of the Thames that was nearby. This prison's notoriety is the reason why we use the phrase “thrown into the Clink” today to mean that someone has gone to prison. No one knows the full history of The Clink prison and what it was like for Shakespeare better than the curator at The Clink Prison Museum in London, and our guest this week, Alex Lyon.

In this podcast Neil takes us to a place where all our modern senses and sterile sensibilities are thrown into shock. London at the turn of the C17th was a major metropolis, a city teeming with life, where pestilence and poverty sat cheek by jowl with great wealth and riches. A major industrial centre it was ripe with every stink of animal and human imaginable, streets crowded and claustrophobic, some lined with the rotting body parts of dismembered criminals.Striding into this world came William Shakespeare, a man who had the power to entertain the thongs. Conjuring and conceiving magical words and language he became one of the pillars of the English language. His plays and poetry, that have moved and shaped the whole world, were written, read and performed on Bankside at the Globe theatre.To help support this podcast and get exclusive access to New Videos Every Week sign up to Neil Oliver on Patreon.https://www.patreon.com/neiloliverThe series Instagram account is – Neil Oliver Love Letter See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Check out the Salisbury Cathedral by visiting Salisbury SP1 2EJ, United Kingdom.   The Shard Modern buildings are usually tall, rectangular edifices towering high into the sky. While The Shard is the latter, the design of this building will blow your mind! Towering up hundreds of feet into the air, The Shard looks like a giant dropped large shards of glass into the ground, to where they stuck, leaving their pointy edges skyward.

Creating a product with surplus bread, tackling food waste through positive action and putting the mission for change before profits with David, Head Breadwinner at Toast Ale. We spoke to David from Toast Ale about all things food waste and how to tackle it. We heard how Toast are making their ale using surplus bread – leading the way in a new side of the food industry and demonstrating how a change of view about what we consider unusable food can make a big difference. In focusing on their mission over profits, they hope to spread the word about the food waste issue. Toast give all of their profits to Feedback, the charity started by Toast founder Tristram Stuart, and in doing so are making real steps towards creating systemic change. We also talked about the Toast team and heard how they are creating an ethos that sidesteps traditional hierarchy to give every member an equal voice. We recorded this episode at Toast bread quarters within the Bankside sustainable workspaces – there is some background noise on the episode as it's a bustling space but it's a great conversation so we hope you'll bear with us!

Lee Connelly first appeared on The Sodshow December 2016. From that interview a rebirth was given to that stage name and, almost 2 years later Peter Donegan and Lee meet up to chat just why, what happened since and where the future lies for horticulture media and what needs to be done to change it, for the future. There's obviously a little bit more to it than that. Subscribe to The Sodshow in iTunes, all good podcast stores and via www.sodshow.com The interview was recorded at The Distillery, Bankside, London and it should be noted the staff there are pretty amazing. Or, just do the friendly things in life as they should be done. We had just come from the Tate Modern.

In this weeks episode of THE LIKES OF US podcast, dedicated to Working-Class Life, Art, Politics and Culture, your host, Neil Bradley takes a couple of nice walks with Child-Palmer, visiting the Southbank and Bankside, taking a bitter-sweet trip down memory lane. He also attends a dinner party ('ark at him) where he discusses Brexit and Poor Doors with his fellow guests. And there's also Part 6 of the Great Western Adventure, travelling from Denver, the Mile-High city, to Boulder, where he searches in vain for Mork and Mindy. He takes a trip into the Colorado Rocky Mountains, but gets caught in a snow blizzard, and then travels on to Cheyenne, Wyoming, the Cowboy Capital of America, where he discovers it's all methamphetamine recovery clinics, biker bars, halfway houses and Chatham-like misery. Oh, and he also visits a greasy spoon, where he mistakenly orders a whole cow!

On this weeks episode I play recordings from my time in London attending the merge festival, an annual festival that encourages and promotes a set of performances, events and happenings, which draw on the rich heritage and contemporary culture of Bankside a neighborhood located on the Southside of the Thames in London. The project was co sponsored by the Tate Modern and Better Bankside the local business association and for one amazing month I had a high street shop in London. Artists featured in this episode: Palumbo and the Funk - Love Attack Atomic Kitty - Where Did you Go James Frost - All Of Our Hands

Today’s episode features some of the artists that made me feel at home in London. Whether they physically helped me build the installation, provided me with a space to express myself, or inspired me, there was a core community based in the Bankside that were instrumental to the success and spirit of the project. This episode is to thank all of the kind souls that helped and welcomed me into the incredible city of London Music Featured in this episode: The Anna Page Band - Never Records Borough Lovers - Looky Here James McArthur - Lawn and Order

This week's episode of Never Records was recorded in London in 2011, where I was participating in the Merge Festival. I spent a month in Bankside, where I recorded and pressed vinyl. The recordings I’m going to share today represent artists who were drawn by the allegorical potential of vinyl. The artists featured in this episode are: Doug Shaw - Human Resource Hayley Tucker - The Merry Month of May The Beathoven Band - Easy

In 2011 I spent a month in England to participate in the Merge Festival, an annual festival that encourages and promotes a set of performances, events and happenings which draw on the rich heritage and contemporary culture of Bankside. Today's episode is all about the humor. From satirical to sardonic, silly to sentimental, the Brits kept me on my toes with their mercurial wit and whimsy. The batch of songs that I’m going to play for you today use humor as a storytelling tool. Tracks in this episode: Art terry - Black Bohemian Erin K and Tash - The Horsehead Song Johnny O - Invasion of the Killer Lobsters

In 2011, I was invited by Caroline Jones from Illuminate Productions to participate in the Merge Festival, an annual festival that encourages and promotes a set of performances, events and happenings which draw on the rich heritage and contemporary culture of Bankside. a neighborhood located on the Southside of the Thames just down the road from the Tate Modern. For one amazing month I had a high street shop in London and I can’t wait to share some more sounds from London with you. Music Featured in this episode: Syd Arthur - Ode to the Summer Bill Fallon - Mooring Road Innua Ellams - Directions

How can an 18th Century cartoonist be the inspiration for modern day mixology? Sam Mitchell has found a way and lucky for us we get to sample his artistic creations? James Gillray might not be as well known as his fellow 18thC cartoonist Hogarth, but does William have one of the great Gin Bars in London bearing his name? I think not. Gillray was known as "the father of the political cartoon" for poking fun at the mad King George III and others in his wake. Hogarth and he reigned supreme with their humorous, witty and biting caricatures. Now, as in the 17th C, the spirit known as Mother's Ruin is also reigning supreme in the city of its birth. Sam Mitchell who helms Gillray’s Bar at the London Marriott Hotel County Hall joins us today on the show to explain his take on this craze. He talks, among other things, about how he draws inspiration from the artist's work in creating the exciting menu. It adds to the enjoyment, but is not essential, to come along already versed in Gillray's work. Download the audio Watch Sam rustle up a Regardez-Moi on Mixology in a Minute Here are four of the cartoons which have leant their names to a few of the cocktails on the menu. From top to bottom, left to right the images are: 'Drawing out a new batching of kings’ by James Gillray 'Regardez moi’ by James Gillray, hand-coloured etching and aquatint, 1781 ‘The Jubilee’ by James Gillray, published by  Elizabeth d’Acheryby James Gillray, published by  Elizabeth d’Achery, hand-coloured etching, published 2 August 1782 ‘Uncorking Old Sherry’ by James Gillray WHERE YOU CAN HEAR ME DRINKING NEXT: Next week, and the last before Best Sips takes a summer holiday, are the tag team of bar manager Daniel Thompson & bartender Carlo Lorenzon over at TwoRuba at Hilton London Tower Bridge.

Historian Matt Green returns to 5x15 to talk about his time travelling guide to London. Let time traveller Dr Matthew Green be your guide to six extraordinary periods in London's history - the ages of Shakespeare, medieval city life, plague, coffee houses, the reign of Victoria and the Blitz. We'll turn back the clock to the time of Shakespeare and visit a savage bull and bear baiting arena on the Bankside. In medieval London, we'll circle the walls as the city lies barricaded under curfew, while spinning further forward in time we'll inhale the 'holy herb' in an early tobacco house, before peering into an open plague pit. In the 18th century, we'll navigate the streets in style with a ride on a sedan chair, and when we land in Victorian London, we'll take a tour of freak-show booths and meet the Elephant Man. You'll meet pornographers and traitors, actors and apothecaries, the mad, bad and dangerous to know, all desperate to show you the thrilling and vibrant history of the world's liveliest city. 5x15 brings together five outstanding individuals to tell of their lives, passions and inspirations. There are only two rules - no scripts and only 15 minutes each.

Argent agreed to provide only 40% of its housing as social housing when it signed the planning agreement in 2006, rather than the London target of 50%. That came to 750 of 2,000. With properties selling for an average of upwards of £1 million each, Argent now wants to back out after it has delivered only 650 of the agreed homes. People have taken to leaving messages on Argent’s Facebook in protest and over 11 thousand have signed on online petition. Here some of the things that protesters are saying.
