The Pitmen Painters theater tickets, National Theatre, Lyttelton, London

Wed, 23 Jul 2008 17:04:29 GMT

In 1934, a group of Ashington miners hired a professor to teach an art appreciation evening class. Rapidly abandoning theory in favour of practice, the pitmen began to paint. Within a few years the most avant-garde artists became their friends and their work was acquired by prestigious collections; but every day they worked, as before, down the mine.
Following sell-out seasons at Live Theatre Newcastle and in the Cottesloe, The Pitmen Painters returns, this time to the Lyttelton. Lee Hall's new play is a humorous, deeply moving and timely look at art, class and politics.

Wed, 23 Jul 2008 14:14:30 GMT

he Year of Magical Thinking, adapted for the stage by Joan Didion from her best-selling memoir of the same name, chronicles the aftermath of her husband's sudden death.
Grief turns out to be a place none of us know until we reach it. We know that someone close to us could die. We might expect to feel shock. We do not expect this shock to be obliterative, dislocating to both body and mind. We might expect to be prostrate, inconsolable, crazy with loss. We do not expect to be literally crazy - cool customers who believe that their husband is about to return and need his shoes.

Following a sell-out run on Broadway in 2007, Vanessa Redgrave repeats her award-winning solo performance in David Hare's celebrated production which now receives its UK premiere.

Tue, 22 Jul 2008 20:11:00 GMT

The Sports Museum of America (SmA), located in Lower Manhattan, is the nation's first and only museum to celebrate, under one roof, all of the sports Americans love. Created in exclusive partnership with more than 50 single-sport Halls of Fame, Museums, National Governing Bodies and other sports organizations from across North America; SmA is further distinguished by our Board of Trustees, which includes some of the most beloved and respected athletes in all of sports.

Our mission is to richly showcase the history, grandeur and significance of sports in American culture, and to remind us all why sports has spawned a worldwide community of avid fans and admirers. We're a part of that community and we plan to help keep the dialogue vibrant and ongoing.

When we build it, who will come...

From sports fans looking for some flat-out fun... to moms and dads who want entertainment and enrichment for the whole family... to coaches and teachers who seek education and inspiration... the Sports Museum of America is designed to excite and delight the fan and athlete in all of us. And we're committed to providing a rewarding experience for people of any age, gender, ethnicity, nationality or ability. Come find us in Lower Manhattan.

The experience...

The Sports Museum of America is an interactive, multimedia experience connecting our visitors to the sports they love through leading technology as well as memorabilia and iconic artifacts donated by single-sport Halls of Fame, Museums, individual athletes and private collectors. From the moment you step through our doors, you will be immersed in an intimate, multi-sensory environment where you can relive your favorite goose-bump moments in sports history - thrilling athletic feats, record-setting triumphs, and heartwarming and heartbreaking stories that transcend sports. And with more than 600 artifacts, 1,100 photos, and 20 original films within 19 galleries, you can choose to experience highlights of all sports in 90 jam-packed minutes or immerse yourself for hours in the great sports stories that touch us all so deeply.

SmA also features more than 2 dozen mechanical and computer interactive exhibits putting you in the middle of the action of your favorite sports - whether it's feeling the sensation of an incoming, 120mph slapshot from the hockey goalie's perspective, stepping on to a simulated NASCAR racetrack with cars screaming by on floor-to-ceiling screens, feeling the pressure on an NFL official to make the correct call on the field, exploring Cisco's virtual "ballparks of the future" kiosk, or comparing the weight of the baseball bats used by Alex Rodriguez, Ken Griffey, Jr., and Ichiro Suzuki.

At SmA, innovative exhibits engage and entertain families and fans of all sports - redefining what a museum can be.

Finally, greatness has a home...

The museum is the proud new home of the legendary Heisman Trophy, college football's top honor, first awarded in 1935. The Gallery will present the history of the award, define the attributes that make a Heisman winner, and pay tribute to Heisman winners past and present. At the center of the gallery, visitors will be able to admire and touch the original Heisman Trophy, and can cast their votes for the next Heisman winner, who will be awarded the trophy at the Sports Museum of America each December starting in 2008.

We'll also be housing the Billie Jean King International Women's Sports Center, including the first ever hall of fame dedicated to women's sports, the Women's Sports Foundation International Women's Sports Hall of Fame. Here, outstanding female athletes, coaches, and those who inspire them will finally receive the tributes they deserve. In the center, a showcase of Billie Jean King's life-long vision, you will follow the path of mind, body, and soul to learn what it takes to be a female athlete.

Community efforts...

The Sports Museum of America is helping to support multiple charities and non-profit organizations, including the vast majority of our Founding Sports Partner organizations, by making donations to each and encouraging our guests to visit and learn more about them. In addition, SmA has pledged to return a portion of our revenues to Pat LaFontaine's Companions in Courage Foundation and the Jackie Robinson Foundation.

Host a party and sport our gear...

The Sports Museum of America also features the SmA Store, an extensive retail area with over 4,000 square feet of exclusive sports merchandise and memorabilia from the greatest brands in sports today. And with premium catering from Restaurant Associates, SmA features the Legends Level - 8,000 square feet of dedicated special event space that, when coupled with the full museum experience, surround you with heroes, exciting achievements and the most uplifting stories in all of sports.
