Bringing Down the House Calligraphy and hand-lettering

Bringing Down the House Calligraphy and hand-letteringBetween 1979 and 1997, a quarter of Britains regional theaters closed their doors forever. Those that survived found themselves constantly on the brink, forced to radically reduce their programs and shut down for extended periods. Bringing Down the House examines how and why this crisis occurred, from the British governments scant regard for the arts after World War II to the onset of Thatcherism and its long lasting effects on the theater industry.
