  • End
    Fri, July 26, 2019
  • Location
    St Marylebone Parish Church

  Famous people connected with St Marylebone Parish have shaped the world through music, art, architecture, literature, invention and innovation, medicine and healthcare, and the Festival, now in its fourth year, tells and celebrates some of their stories.  

  Begin the week by signing up to ‘Come and Sing’ Marylebone resident Sir Karl Jenkins's powerful choral piece, The Armed Man; then spend the rest of the week enjoying a wide variety of music, dance and drama.  There is an American flavour to the programme this year; St Marylebone was home to the first American legations, initially in Great Cumberland Place and then Park Crescent, where the memorial to John F Kennedy is situated.  With this is mind, come and hear the visiting San Francisco Girls Chorus, or enjoy Hollywood film music arranged for Organ Duet, or relax at a Jazz Evening tribute to the great Sidney Bechet. There’s a one-woman tribute to Judy Garland, following a singalong screening of The Wizard of Oz.  Explore yet more surprising local connections with famous figures such as Vaslav Nijinsky, Kathleen Ferrier and Ralph Vaughan Williams.  On the final evening you can transport yourself to a Marylebone of the past for a 1920s dinner and soirée, after which the Grand Festival Raffle will be drawn with amazing prizes! 

  
  

  Proceeds will go towards the Changing Lives project to make this beautiful Parish Church, a Grade I listed building, weather-tight, safe, secure, accessible and equipped with better facilities to continue the work of 900 years!

  For a full programme and tickets go to www.stmarylebonefestival.com  Tickets also available from Sandfords, 213-215 Gloucester Place, NW16BU.

  Oscar & George On Film

  7pm in the Crypt at St Marylebone Parish Church, starting in September 2019

  A series of six films featuring the works of Oscar Wilde and George Bernard Shaw with introductions by Professor Paul Loosley.

  For this series Paul Loosley examines the broad cinema canon of a couple of fiercely intelligent playwrights; both Dublin-born, who, while both having much to say about London society.

  Oscar Wilde was a confirmed aesthete and a lover of all things beautiful. His work reflected both his self-declared wit and was peppered with Lords and Ladies and set in London townhouses.

  George Bernard Shaw on the other hand was a confirmed socialist, pacifist and Christian. Frowning on the disparity between the idle rich and the hard-working poor, Shaw managed to lighten his burdensome political statements with clever metaphor and an equally superlative wit.

  Before each screening Paul will discuss each film for approximately 30 minutes, giving insights into the playwright, the play and the production of the film. Altogether an interesting, instructive and enlightening evening that will also contribute to the welfare of one of London’s most historic and beautiful places of worship.

  10th September George Bernard Shaw’s Pygmalion (1938)

  24th September Oscar Wilde’s An Ideal Husband (1999)

  8th October George Bernard Shaw’s Major Barbara (1941)

• Catch Your Breath - Exhibition

  • When
    Fri, September 20, 2019
  •  
    9:00 AM - 5:00 PM
  • Location
    Royal College of Physicians, 11 St Andrew’s Place, Regent’s Park, London, NW1 4LE

  Event runs until 20 September 2019

  
  

  Breathing is so much more than simply biology. From babies’ first cries to our final dying gasps, breath is our constant companion on the journey through life.

  This new exhibition draws on art, philosophy, anthropology, medicine, history and literature to demonstrate the unique role of respiration in human life and culture.

  Combining research from the ‘Life of Breath’ project led by the universities of Durham and Bristol with contemporary artworks, and alongside objects from the Royal College of Physicians’ amazing 500-year old collections, these new displays vividly convey how breathing is not simply a bodily function, but a force that allows us to speak, laugh and sing.

  In the UK today one in five people has breathing difficulties or respiratory illness. In fact, respiratory disease is the third biggest cause of death in the country. Yet, despite this startling reality, to many people breathlessness as a condition is – like the air - invisible.

  Seeking to break through this silence and stigma, the exhibition brings together the voices of patients and clinicians through time, speaking to the vital importance of breath itself and the atmosphere we all share.

  From an Italian Renaissance Bible to a Victorian edition of Charles Dickens’ classic novel ‘Bleak House’. An 18^th century medicine jar that once contained ‘dried fox lungs’ to a 21^st century cyclist’s breathing masks. From one of the earliest ever stethoscopes to the moving and graphic account of a young man caring for his father in the final stages of illness. A pipe of peace to an advertisement for ‘asthma cigarettes’. The incredibly diverse objects on show relate how breath can contain profound social and spiritual meaning, as well as being a marker of both health and illness.

  Occasionally harrowing, often hopeful, never less than intriguing and frequently inspiring ‘Catch your breath’ reflects on the ways in which we experience breathing and breathlessness, how doctors have diagnosed and treated the diseases which cause distress, and how artists and writers have sought to capture this most fundamental of human actions.

  The exhibition seeks to raise our consciousness of breath and breathlessness, to tackle the stigma that surrounds breathing problems and place this universal act - that defines human life and yet so often goes unnoticed by so many – in the forefront of our minds.

  The exhibition is accompanied by a programme of events and late openings for more details visit the website at https://history.rcplondon.ac.uk/event/catch-your-breath

    37-38 Charles Street, London W1

  A unique opportunity to glimpse London life as it would have been in the 18th and 19th century – if you were wealthy. Lord Revelstoke, of the Baring banking family, described as ‘one of the most conspicuous consumers’ of his time, bought the building to house his vast collection of antiques and art. A banking crisis (and a Bank of England bailout) still left him bankrupt but a few decades later the building was acquired by the newly formed English Speaking Union whose aim was to promote communication to bolster international understanding and, ultimately, peace. Today the ESU still operates as a members’ club but also runs an extensive educational programme to help young people express themselves and to think for themselves. Our visit will take approximately 1 hour, with a guide to take us through the history of this remarkable place. To reserve a place contact rosemary.forgan@marylebone.org or tel: 020 7916 9353. Cost £5 (to include tea/coffee after the tour)
