The Theatre/ manufacturing the maritime

http://www.flickr.com/photos/ds6/

Stepping through a blank door in a wooden hoarding last summer we found the site of the first purpose built theatre in London where Romeo and Juliet was first performed. Plays, gambling, drinking and the like were frowned on by the city fathers. They were beyond the pale, literally outside the city walls, which explains the location of The Theatre. This location and history is the inspiration for a project to design a theatrical experience for Shoreditch which reflects on an everyday activity in the locality.

Whitstable is a prime example of how tourism has revitalised the declining local economy and industry through oyster production, consumption and the annual Oyster Festival. The design proposals for Whitstable sought to integrate a manufacturing enterprise within the poetic landscape through the revival of an existing declining industry or one that once thrived here. The theatrical quality of touristic activity was exploited to make a new public space. This is a project deeply concerned with landscape and our response to it.
