Just a few questions of space

Article Abstract:

The two largest art centres in Europe are situated in London. The West End has almost 50 theatres. Urgent refurbishment of most of the theatres need to be undertaken. A city-wide authority does not exist for London making a coherent policy difficult. The Prime Minister John Major has pledged priority to the UK's heritage. The majority of the theatres and halls are uncomfortable, cramped and unsafe for both artists and audiences. More studios for artists and composers who need access to equipment need to be provided.

After the IRA: a church lost and found

Article Abstract:

The tiny 14th century church of St Ethelburga-the-Virgin in the City of London, England, survived the Great Fire of 1666 and the Blitz of 1940 but was destroyed by the IRA bomb in Bishopsgate in Apr 1993. It could be rebuilt, but it was not used much and there may be no money for this. Its history cannot be replaced. It could be replaced by a modern church in a new style, the land could be sold for offices or the space could become a memorial to victims of terrorism.
