Along with the national theatre & south bank centre, this is one of the best and most beautiful arts complexes in London. I long to live there, and have spent many a long hour following the yellow line to the centre and sitting in the paradise of a water park.

Recently, I saw Joanna Newsom play here and it was one of the most beautiful and startling concerts I have ever been to. She's got such power in her voice! Sorry, this is supposed to be about The Barbican...

I've had a few good meals here - the balcony bistro is very good, but as with all arts centres, quite expensive. The food was gorgeous though, and there was a good selection of wines.

Forthcoming events include Complicite's new devised piece of theatre in September, which I reckon will be one of the most astonishing things that'll ever grace a stage. Definitely something to look forward to.

There's a Cinema, amazing Library (massive number of CDs and music scores), exhibitions and a tropical garden. oh and a drawbridge.

A wonderful, magical place. If i'm going there, I know i'm going to come back over-excited about what the human race is capable of.]]> Sat, 24 Mar 2007 23:31:54 +0000 /review/uk/london/cultural/1n3588/barbican-centre/1v91b8949106590 MartinKemp 51.519579724894 -0.094539908091235 http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/london/cultural/1n3588/barbican-centre/1020q9
