As a geographer I am fascinated by the world. I love learning about both the workings of the physical world and the complexities of the human world, but it has always been the crossover between the two, the ways in which the two worlds interact and influence each other that has captured my imagination.

Battersea Arts Centre Lavender Hill London SW11 5TN | Tickets - Reviews
Battersea Arts Centre. Open from 10.00am until late Mon-Sat for anyone to explore, so get along and see for yourself.
The Battersea Arts Centre ("BAC") is a Grade II* listed building near Clapham Junction railway station in Battersea, in the London Borough of Wandsworth that operates as a performance space specialising in theatre productions. It was previously Battersea Town Hall.
In March 2015, while a major programme of renovation works were underway, the Grand Hall was severely damaged by fire. Approximately 70% of the theatre, including the 200-capacity Council Chamber, the Scratch Bar and the Members Library, was saved from the fire and remains open.

Jess’ co-star, introduced […]
Review of Sponge by Turned On Its Head at Battersea Arts Centre
Sponge by the East Midlands dance company Turned on its Head is currently playing at the Battersea Arts Centre. It’s an imaginative and playful dance show perfectly devised for young children. Led by two dancers Shane Shambu and Louise Gibbons, Sponge is a highly visual show with no dialogue and an upbeat 1970s dance soundtrack. […]
Review of Ugly Chief at Battersea Arts Centre
The on-stage squabbles between Victoria Melody and her father, Mike (who play themselves) are, in some respects, not unlike the bickering that goes on between characters in a soap opera. The lines of communication are kept open between father and daughter, and while their approaches to life (and death) are wildly different, as a whole, […]
Dirty Work (The Late Shift) at Battersea Arts Centre
Forced Entertainment. The clue’s in the name. Forced Entertainment’s revived production of Dirty Work is imagination, language and overt theatricality forced upon us. Two performers (Robin Arthur and Cathy Naden) talk us through the action of a five-act play. Arthur wears a green shirt, Naden wears a purple dress; both reflect the tangible light of […]
