Re: Oswaldtwistle Civic Theatre

I was not unwilling to answer your question. I had nothing to hide and have nothing to hide. In fact, I think you'll have to agree that I answer any direct question openly and honestly. Just because...

Re: Oswaldtwistle Civic Theatre

Acrylic-Bob, it is you that is wrong. It will work.

There is little point in having a discussion about this when we are at such polar ends of the scale with regards to belief in the project. I'm...

Re: Oswaldtwistle Civic Theatre

You say you did Fine Art, yes, well so did I but I found most of the students on that course to be pompous and arrogant so switched to graphics.

You clearly don't believe this will work and I'm...

Re: Oswaldtwistle Civic Theatre

I'm so honoured that you're going to respond to my statement eventually. I was beginning to get the feeling that you'd abandoned us. And by 'us' I mean 'me' in the same way that you use the word...

Re: Oswaldtwistle Civic Theatre

It is a new creation but it was created two years ago. When I was invited to apply for the post of Arts Consultant for the council. It did come about in a slightly roundabout way but it was all above...

Re: Oswaldtwistle Civic Theatre

I’ve taken so long to reply to this for a few reasons.

1. I wasn’t sure that anything I said would be believed or accepted as it’s very easy for some people to take a negative stance.
2. It’s...

Re: Oswaldtwistle Civic Theatre

A-B - we didn't get the £1.6m funding. It is only the ground floor that is being refurbished with HBC capital investment.

It will be run like a business so will in time make profit for HBC - in...

Re: Oswaldtwistle Civic Theatre

Any ideas are welcome.

Yes, school visits and local history stuff is a good idea. I did a walk around Ossy a while ago with a group from one school and they seemed to enjoy it.

Re: Oswaldtwistle Civic Theatre

There will still be pantos, shows and things going on upstairs.
This is for downstairs. The space downstairs isn't really used at the moment, so by turning it into an arts centre it will give it a...

Re: Oswaldtwistle Civic Theatre

Because the findings showed that there is lack of cultural provision for young people in this area. Also, since the first report was done further national reports have been published which encourage...

Re: Oswaldtwistle Civic Theatre

I've been away for the weekend so just seen this.

First things first - hiya A-B, you've been missed.

Secondly, to answer your question - It's mostly going to be an Arts Centre for young people...

Re: Oswaldtwistle Civic Theatre

It's the little one at the back. I'm not 100% sure but I think it's temporary as it will be the construction site - i.e. they'll be putting all their equipment and materials plus a portacabin there...

Re: Oswaldtwistle Civic Theatre

It is a shame we're not at the theatre - it's going to be very hard to point things out if the things that I would be pointing out aren't there!

Re: Oswaldtwistle Civic Theatre

I was late last time, ooops and the time before, because I honestly thought it started at 7.30pm. I have been told, quite clearly by a number of people (who obviously don't want me to be late) that...

Re: Oswaldtwistle Civic Theatre

Whilst I realise parking is a big issue in some respects I do wonder whether it isn't a red herring of sorts.

I mean, if you go to Manchester to the theatre are you ever able to park right next to...

Re: Oswaldtwistle Civic Theatre

You've asked a question and pretty much answered it in one post.

Vandalism, bad behaviour etc - provide something for teens to do so they're not idle - turn the theatre into an arts centre.

Re: Oswaldtwistle Civic Theatre

Unfortunately, no I can't elaborate as that's the whole point behind doing a consultation - to find out what people want and to see if it's possible to do it. If people say they want the arts centre...
