What is it that is so special about
0:01
working in the City of London for you?
0:03
>> The city is such a strange place really.
0:06
There's so much going on and we're like
0:09
even stranger in that we have got so
0:11
much going on just in one pocket. I
0:14
think the Barbican specifically, every
0:16
day is different. There's so much to get
0:19
involved in in terms of there's music in
0:21
the hall, you've got cinema, you've got
0:24
the theater. You can come here for a
0:26
drink, you can come here for a meal. The
0:28
Barbican on on its own is this little
0:30
microcosm of of living and it's just
0:33
great to have that kind of network
0:34
around you. It's a fun place. It's so
0:36
unique, you know, like it's an
0:38
international iconic building. You're
0:40
meeting with so many international,
0:42
national and local artists and
0:44
participants at the same time. Anything
0:46
is possible here, you know, we're in a
0:48
as you can see we're in this amazing
0:50
kind of brutalist building. It's just a
0:52
phenomenal place that so many different
0:54
things can actually happen. You can
0:56
actually dream and those things can be
0:57
realized here at the Barbican. But more
0:59
importantly, it's so lovely that you can
1:01
get to work with anybody. So like from
1:03
our youngest audiences right up to our
1:05
oldest all the way that everyone can
1:06
take part and have a cultural experience
1:07
here at the Barbican whether it's coming
1:09
to watch a show or taking part in any of
1:12
our like cultural activities. So that's
