A new adaptation of Wuthering Heights, featuring Margot Robbie, is generating buzz. This racy take on the classic novel is being discussed alongside an adaptation of William Golding's Lord of the Flies, co-written by Jack Thorne.
The South Bank Centre has achieved a major milestone, securing Grade II listing for its iconic structure after a dedicated 35-year campaign. This recognition sparks a conversation about Brutalism.
Architecture historian Barnabas Calder and former Artistic Director Jude Kelly are exploring the evolving perception of Brutalist architecture. They question whether society is developing a greater appreciation for this often-debated style.
