    If you know about theatre and have good taste then this is the place to be. Advanced booking is a…read moremust as people in the know, know about it. The top West End shows come here before they go to the West End. The shows for the descerning come here, rather than the mass market popular culture. That is not to say that they do not do pantomimes and accessible productions for all ages, but they are defintely catering for the higher brow market. A while ago they went down hill a bit, but they got a new producer a few years ago and they are definitely back, with great shows, production values, actors and all that you could want for a place that does not fail to satisfy.

But it took a trip to Chichester this October to see the best play of our lives and our favorite performance ever- Sir Ian McKellen in a profound and stunning performance as King Lear. The festival grounds are beautiful and there were several nice options for pre theater snacks and refreshments. But what blew us away was the gorgeous, intimate stage (the Minerva) and the high caliber of every performance. We had wondered if an excursion to Chichester from London would be worth it, and it ended up being the highlight of our trip. We will definitely include Chichester on our next trip to London.

    I had used this place once before to frame one of the Yellowkorner lions (if you haven't seen them…read morecheck them out, magnificent) - it was done really well and using this sort of "extra clear" glass; yes, extra £ too, but absolutely worth it So now we had a series of 6 Vanity Fair polo prints to have framed, 3 of them originals so care needed, and we immediately thought of Andrew With his advice we chose a specific frame and then married up the best mount colours and sizes for each print and off we went leaving Jo to do the necessary! Great result, great service, great value. On top of which Andrew has great blues playing in the shop (he is in a band too) Very, very pleased with the outcome and we will be bringing another print which has slipped in its frame to him shortly Highly recommended

    I'd been looking forward to my visit to the prestigious Gulbenkian award-winning (2007) Pallant…read moreHouse, for a long while. Arriving at the elegant exterior, mid-way down a charming characterful street, I wasn't disappointed at my first view. Armed with my floor plan, I went upstairs, starting in the historic collections. One of the most impressive sights, in the first room, was the gilded bronze bust of Charles I, created by Hubert le Sueur, in 1637. As I progressed through the rooms, I was intrigued to notice chic leather chairs with strategically placed pine cones (not for artistic reasons but to prevent the temptation for visitors to rest on them). Moving out of the historic collections, I came upon the striking original (walnut?) staircase, contrastingly complemented by Nina Saunders amazing velvet fabric creations. I had to smile when I noticed her limited edition (of 50) velvet dustpan: Mr William Morris' Pan for the Application of Utilitarian Cleaning available to order, for the sum of £360. I also loved Susie MacMurray's highly inventive After 'Shell' with mussel shells and deep red velvet dramatically combining to form unusual but exquisite tulips. Speaking with the empassioned guides, I learnt that much of the collection had been donated by Walter Hussey, former Dean of Chichester Cathedral, in 1981, on condition that it be made available for public view. Charles Kearley's remarkable bequest (1988) contributes the mainstay of prominent European masterpieces in the collection. The highlights for me, were varied and many, including: Antony Gormley's simple elegant, stunning mild steel rod sculpture Trajectory Field III (2002, on loan); Richard Hamilton's Swingeing London (sic), a 1967 piece depicting the hand-cuffed Mick Jagger and Robert Fraser as they were driven away after a drugs raid; Eileen Agar's simply beautiful Italian Girl (1927); Julian Trevelyan's Absentee Pig (1943); George Bracque's stunning, vivid blue The Bird (1949); Salvador Dali's hot-hued Hawaii Suite II (1973). I loved the temporary Lee Miller and Friends exhibit (runs until 29th March '09) packed with wonderfully evocative and iconic photography (taken mostly in the 1940s and '50s), including everyday moments shared with Pablo Picasso and his family and Jean Cocteau.

    Quietly situated on the South side of the main shopping area, this gallery offers excellent viewing…read moreof some very fine art work. Previous repirts from Qypers will indicate the extremely high standard displayed here. At present, tere is a fine exhibition by Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera: Masterpieces from The Gelman Collection. Trot along if you're in the area.
